I'm not sure Age of Calamity will be a huge game in Japan as Zelda's not as big there as it is in the West.
How much did the first Hyrule Warriors sell?

It will be very big for a musou game everywhere in the world. The biggest ever probably.
But probably won't beat the old records for a Warrior game in Japan. They were million sellers back in the PS2 days but those times are long gone.

Age of Calamity will certainly be the bestselling of this generation.

System	Title	FW	LTD	Publisher	Release Date
WIU	Hyrule Warriors	78.773	126.700	Koei Tecmo	14/08/2014
3DS	Hyrule Warriors: Legends	54.856	107.312	Koei Tecmo	21/01/2016
SWI	Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition	21.064	54.021	Koei Tecmo	22/03/2018

Media Create had the Switch version at 64k at the end of 2019.

"For a musou game" being the operative phrase I suppose; I'm sure it'll do well worldwide but Japan specifically doesn't seem especially taken with Zelda Musou.
