First reported by VGC, Sega Sammy Holdings—Sega’s delightfully-named mum or dad firm—mistakenly uploaded gross sales numbers for 11 main video games to a public web page on the corporate web site. ResetEra person –R uploaded the total desk to the discussion board, permitting us to nonetheless peep these numbies after Sega took the unique web page down.
The unique desk charts earnings by fiscal 12 months from 2020 to 2025, however for simplicity, listed here are the full models offered for every sport throughout the complete span:
- Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth: 1.66 million
- Like a Dragon: The Man Who Erased His Title: 960,000
- Persona 3 Reload: 2.07 million
- Sonic Superstars: 2.43 million
- Sonic Frontiers: 4.57 million
- Complete Battle: Warhammer 3: 2.34 million
- Shin Megami Tensei V: 2.11 million
- Yakuza: Like a Dragon: 2.86 million
- Persona 5 Royal: 7.25 million
- Crew Sonic Racing: 3.50 million
- Complete Battle: Three Kingdoms: 3.21 million
The largest shock for me is how effectively Sonic video games are promoting to at the present time—presumably helped a fantastic deal by the films—in addition to how slowly latest Yakuza/Like a Dragon video games have offered by comparability. Sonic Frontiers moved virtually as many models as Yakuza 7, Infinite Wealth, and The Man Who Erased His Title mixed.
Frontiers is a sport that appeared to come back and go with out a lot fanfare, whereas Like a Dragon seems to be on the peak of its recognition. I would not fear about Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio or something, although: These are nonetheless robust showings, and the developer simply cranks video games out at an virtually unheard-of tempo for the 2020s sport business, greater than making up for anyone sport’s relative lack of success.
Two extra issues stood out to me. First, nothing even comes near Persona 5 Royal’s 7 million models offered, and this information would not even account for Persona 5’s first three years of non-Royal circulation, seemingly placing its complete north of 10 million.
Second are the notable omissions of Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii and particularly Metaphor: ReFantazio. Each have been maybe excluded for having launched too near the top of Sega’s 2025 fiscal 12 months, however Metaphor appears to have offered like gangbusters, and I am very curious to know the way it stacks up.
