Punch Club pirated five times more than purchased

Punch Club, the boxing management game from Lazy Bear Games, was pirated a whopping 1.6 million times, according to the developer.

Lazy Bear Games revealed that PC downloads account for almost 70% of this figure. On mobile, Android makes up the lion's share of illegal downloads, accounting for around 90% of pirated copies.

Brazil was found to be the source of most piracy with around 43% of all illegal downloads, followed by Russia at 18%, and China at 15%.

After around a week of being available, Lazy Bear revealed that Punch Club had sold more than 100,000 copies. This momentum has slowed, however, and it now totals around 300,000 sales.

Punch Club's first DLC, The Dark Fist, has been released, featuring cross-platform save functionality and Twitch streaming integration that allows viewers to bet on fights.
