Dragon Quest 11 wasn't exclusive to PS4. In 2017 it came out in Japan on PS4 and 3DS. In 2018 the West got it on PS4 and PC. 2019 got the S version on Switch, then in 2020 went to PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Japan takes up the majority of the sales for DQ. I believe 5 million is from Japan while the West only takes up the remaining 1.5 million. 3DS version sold best in Japan if you're wondering. I doubt Sony would go for DQ exclusivity since that is a heavily Japanese focused franchise. As I stated above 5/6.5 million of the sales came from Japan. Also, Nintendo has shown to have a lot of interest in DQ. Nintendo has published nearly all DQ games in the West on their platforms since the DS DQ remakes. |
DQ sales in Japan are closer to 4 million than 5 Standard Edition sold 1.43 million for PS4 3DS version sold about 1.83 million (VGC data from 2017) Switch Definitive edition is coming close to 0.6 million Definitive edition moved a mere 50k copies for PS4 so I'm guessing Xbox and PC numbers in Japan were negible This sums about ~3.96 million in Japan, with slightly over 4 million being a given as 3DS numbers are pretty outdated All numbers were physical, but Square stated back in 2017 the majority of numbers in Japan were physical to take it with a grain of salt |
With roughly 20% digital it would be at around 5mil.
