Switch milestones: Suika Game / Return to Shironagasu Island / Minecraft / EA Sports FC 24

Suika Game

A recent TV program in Japan shared some additional details about the incredible performance of Suika Game. As of October 12th, the game has already sold over 1.4 million units: that’s +400 000 units within the span of a week!

And to further drive home just how quickly sales exploded, the program revealed that as of last month (September), the game had sold only 1,200 units. In other words, it sold nearly 1.5 million units in less than two months.

Thanks Hartmann for the heads up!
