We’re all ready for the subsequent mainline Persona recreation, however there is a motive SEGA and Atlus have sat fairly with Persona 5 for thus lengthy: As a result of it simply will not cease promoting.
Sega Sammy has printed its newest enterprise report (through Persona Central, Push Sq.), and the Persona 5 collection has bought over 13 million items since its debut in 2016. That is up from 10 million again in December 2023.
Sequence, you ask? Properly, that features the unique PS3/4 launch, Persona 5 Royal, Persona 5 Strikers, Persona 5 Tactica, and Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight. Persona 5: The Phantom X, the cellular recreation, was not developed by Atlus and isn’t included.
Again in August, Atlus JP introduced that Persona 5 and Private 5 Royal had bought over 10 million copies alone, making up the large bulk of that 13k determine, unsurprisingly.
Speaking in regards to the progress in repeat gross sales (for all of Sega’s collection), Sega says that “In recent times, video games have tended to get pleasure from longer gross sales lifecycles, and with the rising share of digital downloads, gross sales of repeat titles have elevated accordingly.”
When it comes to different Persona video games which are accessible on Swap (or Swap 2), Persona 3 Reload now sits at 2.07 million gross sales, although these figures are based mostly on gross sales previous to the Swap 2 model’s launch.
Properly, we are getting a remake of Persona 4 referred to as Persona 4 Revival, although that does not seem like Nintendo certain in the meanwhile. We’ll have to attend and see if we’ll get to see it on Swap 2.
Have you ever performed any of the Persona 5 video games on Swap? Tell us within the feedback.
