    • RPG Codex Report: A Codexian Visit to inXile Entertainment: "Brian Fargo: 400,000 sounds about right. I remember Fallout 1 sold 600,000 units, and Planescape sold less than that. Baldur’s Gate 1 was our big seller. That was over a million copies." [April 2017]
    • Desslock's Ramblings – RPG Sales Figures: "Fallout and Fallout 2, which are considered to be two of the best RPGs released in recent years, sold approximately 144,000 and 123,000 copies, respectively, in PC Data's tracked data. Very good sales, especially since the overall figures are likely double those amounts, but considerably below the sales volumes for true blockbuster titles." [May 2000]

Fallout: New Vegas (2010) — the only game on this list not actually developed by Bethesda Game Studios — performed just slightly lower, selling 11.6 million copies from its 2010 release date to now [November 2015]."
    • Fallout 4 Surpasses Skyrim To Become Bethesda's Most Successful Game Ever: "Fallout 4, which came out in November 2015, shipped 12 million copies on launch day, though Bethesda has not provided a hard sales figure for the game since."
    • Worldwide digital games market: November 2018: "Battlefield V and Fallout 76 launches fail to meet franchise benchmarks. We estimate Battlefield V and Fallout 76 sold 1.9 million and 1.4 million digital units, respectively, across console and PC at launch. Both are down from Battlefield 1 and Fallout 4."
