First reported by VGC, Sega Sammy Holdings—Sega’s delightfully-named mother or father 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 yr from 2020 to 2025, however for simplicity, listed below are the whole items offered for every recreation throughout your complete span:
- Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth: 1.66 million
- Like a Dragon: The Man Who Erased His Identify: 960,000
- Persona 3 Reload: 2.07 million
- Sonic Superstars: 2.43 million
- Sonic Frontiers: 4.57 million
- Complete Warfare: 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 Warfare: Three Kingdoms: 3.21 million
The largest shock for me is how nicely 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 nearly as many items as Yakuza 7, Infinite Wealth, and The Man Who Erased His Identify mixed.
Frontiers is a recreation 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 sturdy showings, and the developer simply cranks video games out at an nearly unheard-of tempo for the 2020s recreation business, greater than making up for anyone recreation’s relative lack of success.
Two extra issues stood out to me. First, nothing even comes near Persona 5 Royal’s 7 million items offered, and this knowledge does not even account for Persona 5’s first three years of non-Royal circulation, probably 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 yr, however Metaphor appears to have offered like gangbusters, and I am very curious to know the way it stacks up.
