The number accounts for both digital sales and physical shipments, including pre-orders. It's worth mentioning that gamers who pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition of Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater gained access to the game two days earlier than others.
Konami did not specify the distribution of sales across platforms. According to estimates by VG Insights, the majority of sales were on consoles. Previously, it calculated that as of September 1, PlayStation accounted for 57% of copies sold, Xbox for 31%, and Steam for 12%. However, at that time, analysts reported sales of only 716,000 copies, not one million.
Currently, Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater has a "very positive" rating on Steam (81%) based on 5,700 reviews, and its Metacritic score from industry press ranges from 81 to 86 out of 100, depending on the platform.
