The official Persona Japanese website announced on July 22 that Persona 5 Royal had sold 1.4 million copies worldwide since it was released in November 2019.
But since the release of Persona 5, the series was brought to the forefront of video game culture, and that’s reflected in the sales of the series, which has skyrocketed to 13 million copies sold, overshadowing its parent series Shin Megami Tensei.
To celebrate the milestone, character designer on the series, Shigenori Soejima, illustrated the newest girls to the Persona series, Kasumi and Persona 5 Scramble’s Sophia.
