Koei must have jumped with joy at the prospect of being given the position of the main holiday title for a platform like Switch and in one of it's most dominant years as well, for DW4 any idea what FW was for it?

723k on PS2 FW in Japan

3k on Xbox FW in Japan

We dont have numbers for the west afaik but it also released one month later in NA and a few months later in PAL.

The sheer fact that AOC may actually hit 5m for the series really brings to light the momentum given to the game as the flagship holiday title for Switch using the BOTW lore especially with the fact that we've had Warrior titles based on other popular IPs like DQ and FE as well in recent years. The stars really aligned for Koei with this one.
