Horizon Forbidden West has sold 8.4 million copies, as of April 16. In a PlayStation blog post celebrating the 20th anniversary of developer Guerrilla Games, studio director Jan-Bart van Beek confirmed that the Horizon franchise has overall sold 32.7 million units. “Millions more around the world have discovered Horizon thanks to PlayStation's subscription services and initiatives, including PlayStation Plus, and Play at Home,” he said. 2022's Forbidden West still has a long way to go before surpassing Horizon Zero Dawn's sales numbers. Guerrilla announced last year that the first game in the series sold 20 million copies across PS4 and PC.

“This reception has been staggering, and we're grateful to the community for the continued love and support for the franchise. We Guerrillas feel lucky to witness that support every day: we share community fanart and cosplay. I want you all to know we are completely blown away by your enthusiasm,” Van Beek added, promising that protagonist Aloy's adventures will continue in a sequel, with the cliffhanger ending of Forbidden West setting up plot points for the same. The game recently received a paid expansion — Burning Shores — which turned Los Angeles into a lava-spitting archipelago. While not explicitly mentioned, the aforementioned 32.7 million sales figure should include both mainline game launches on PS4 and PS5, The Frozen Wilds DLC for the first game, the Burning Shores DLC, Horizon: Call of the Mountain on PS VR2, and the PC release of Horizon Zero Dawn.
