How many copies has Elden Ring sold?

Elden Ring passed 30 million copies; its expansion alone passed ten. The shelf’s numbers, side by side:

The documented figures, each from the games’ own records and publisher reporting: Elden Ring, over 30 million copies, comfortably past Dark Souls III’s ten million, which had stood as Bandai Namco’s fastest-selling record until 2022. Shadow of the Erdtree, over 10 million. Nightreign, over 5 million by July 2025, having sold two million in its first day. And for scale, the earlier shelf: the Dark Souls series, over 39 million copies combined as of 2025; Sekiro, over 10 million by September 2023; Bloodborne, 7.46 million by February 2022.

The trajectory is the story: a 2009 title its publisher would not export became, thirteen years later, a thirty-million-copy event. Each rung is documented in its game’s page in this archive; this page exists so the ladder can be seen whole.
