Apparently it's doubling sales in Europe to be precise, where it is NOT having supply contraints.

Octopath is currently out of stock in US and JP so there is that... And supply constraints merely mean more digital sales these days.

Ah. Europe was the region with the lowest sales for Bravely. Doubling it means, it reaches the sales of the other regions. Certainly good, but does not mean we can double the global sales of Bravely.

However this turns out, let's wait for more numbers to see where it is headed.

Definitely, I will update WW numbers as soon as we have some infos on that front

not enough stock for that



OP is crazy, well and truly so. I wish games like these sold that well, but it's too far-fetched. Still hoping for massive sales and good legs though, it's a really awesome game.



So, 1 Million down, 5 more to go

You should of di 5mil, hell 3mil is bold. I have to wait and see but it'll definetly at worse case be 2mil+

This is not bold. It's dumb.

1. You are saying that Octo will have a popularity level on par with a mainline Final Fantasy, the face of the JRPG. No.
2. Kingdom Hearts 3 is the second most popular RPG series. It will not reach 6 million copies.
3. Dragon Quest 11, the father of the JRPG, will not reach 6 million copies.
4. These games will/have been released on multiple platforms.

Octo will finish somewhere in between 1.3-1.6 mill. There is no way in hell Octo will come out and eclipse Decade+ strong IP's in one installment on a single platform. If it is not Pokemon or Final Fantasy, a JPRG's chance at over 3 mill is zero. Over 2 mill is smashing success. Just achieving 1 mill is a victory. For some, 500k is milestone.

* Pokemon is ignored on purpose because though it is a JRPG, it has ascended past the confines of its genre.

Simply not going to happen.



2 Millions down, 4 more to go.

2.2M if we were to include the sales on Steam

And yeah, I doubt it will get anywhere close those 6M. But i'm sure it can crack the 3M on Switch alone.

Bold is not the word i'd use. It will be lucky to reach 2 million.

Luck confirmed

The current eShop sale will help.

Props for necro-bumping your own thread and fixing your own plate of crow.
