Far Cry 5's moose-whacking, bear-exploding, shovel-throwing brand of chaos has been a big hit with buyers—in its first week, it has sold more than double what Far Cry 4 sold in the same time period, Ubisoft has announced.

It's the fastest-selling game in the history of the series, and the second best launch of any Ubisoft game ever, behind The Division. It brought in more than $310 million in its first seven days, Ubisoft said, but some of the more playful stats about the game's first week are far more interesting: players have thrown more than 35 million sticks of dynamite and been ambushed by skunks more than 8,000 times, Ubisoft said on its blog.
