Nearly half of all Persona game sales are from P5

As part of SEGA's recently released annual fiscal report, the publisher revealed the sales data for its franchises. The Persona series landed as SEGA’s 9th biggest with more than 15 million units sold. Interestingly, nearly half of these sales are related to Persona 5.

In the same report which revealed that Sonic the Hedgehog has amassed an audience of over 1.6 Billion, it was announced that the Persona franchise had officially sold 15.5 million units.

More interestingly however is the fact that Persona 5 and its spin-offs account for 7.22 million units – or almost 47% off all the franchise’s sales.

There is no denying that the Persona series hit it big with Persona 5, and now that the game is available on all modern systems, it is likely to soon account for a majority of the series’ total sales.

That being said, Persona 3 and 4 are coming to modern consoles in 2023, and so it will be interesting to not only see how many more copies are sold over time, but also whether Persona 5 will take the majority of sales.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
