6.5 million Sonic games ? I don't see which game(s) deserve this success

Good for the series. Do they say anything about Metaphor: ReFantazio and Yakuza.

They said that Metaphor sales went strong on slide 45.

Edit Danjin44 Looks like Unicorn Overlord is getting strong repeat sales.

Edit2: Steady sales for Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii and strong repeat sales for prior entries in the franchise.

Fuuuuck yeah! That game deserves it!

See the bounty of success an IP can achieve when it's liberated from the shackles of Playstation exclusivity, SE?

I love the Persona series, but they seriously need to keep innovating for the lack of a better term. Game's too long, certain mechanics begin to feel outdated. Haven't played Metaphor, yet.

 

[StereoVsn]

So… can we have an actual new Persona game now? Or is the plan to have more remakes for the next 5 years?

It's ridiculous that P6 is not even on horizon considering when original P5 was released as a PS3/PS4 cross-gen title!

 

[Hideous Snake]

MORE! Love me some Persona success. Go on Atlus, give us 6 already.

Sonic X Shadow Generations is fantastic. Shadow Generations even tops Sonic Generations.

Sonic Forces is pretty good too but they probably include mobile in this figure.

I wonder how Metaphor 2 will turn out.

So I initially missed this from the Sega's Q4 report, but it looks like P5X will soon release in Japan (no info about Global).

There's also a Twitter post from the P5X_JP account made a couple of hours ago where they said that they'll give the release date for the JP version on May 15. Some speculate that they'll announce the release date for the Global version as well during the JP announcement, but we'll have to wait and see.

Ok now put some love in Total Warhammer 3!

Looks like I might be right about the EN release being announced very soon.

That Game Pass effect

That Game Pass effect

It's games "SOLD" so nothing to do with Gamepass, Gamepass is actually a detriment to actual sales if anything.

Wrong. Clair Obscur is doing so well because its on GP and other platform users end up buying the game because they want in on it too.

Man... You're completely delusional.
