World War Z has sold over one million copies in just one week, Saber Interactive has announced.

The undead-blasting co-op shooter launched for PlayStation 4, PC, and Xbox One on April 16, and is based on the movie of the same name starring Brad Pitt. According to Matthew Karch, Saber Interactive's co-founder, World War Z exceeded expectations outside of the United States, and hit 70,000 concurrent players.

'Overall the U.S. and EU have been equally strong in sales. We have had 70,000 people playing at once across all platforms, with very similar distribution among PC (Epic Games Store), PS4 and Xbox One,' Karch told VentureBeat.

'What surprises us is the fact that sales outside of the U.S. on the Epic Store have been so strong, with the U.S. being only one quarter of sales.'
