Breaking 5 million is a tall order, but it's possible, especially since it's a multiplat. That said, I don't think it will get that high. 2-3 million is my estimate.

How is 2 million even possible?? rofl

Please breakdown by region and console to explain.

I don't think I need to make too much of an essay of it, lol, but I looked at the series sales history and 2-3m is the average. It rarely breaks a million in any region but Japan. The vast majority of sales will come from Japan where the PS4 isn't doing as well (though it will boom for a bit with the release of World, the sales potential there is currently much lower than on 3DS) and Xbox One is non-existent. Console MH games have never sold as well, even in Japan, though this could buck the trend. The PC port isn't a factor until much later, since it was delayed.
