Within the first two weeks of the game launching, Hogwarts Legacy has sold more than 12 million units, Warner Bros. Discovery reported alongside its earnings on Thursday. 

Since its launch on Feb. 10, the game has nabbed $850 million in sales, Warner Bros. Games said. It's the biggest global launch in the company's history and puts Hogwarts Legacy among some of the fastest-selling video games ever. 

Grand Theft Auto V saw sales top $1 billion within three days of its launch in 2013. In 2021, Cyberpunk 2077 sold more than 13 million copies within the first three weeks of its release.
