The most recent updated numbers I could find are: * Persona 5 = 3.2 M copies/units on PS3 and PS4 * Persona 5 Royal = 4 M copies on PS4, PS5, PC, Switch and Xbox by April 2023. It sold around 2.3M copies on PS4 alone * Persona 5 Strikers = slightly more than 2M copies by November 2023

The rest are Persona 5 Dancing and Persona 5 Tactica copies

I only bought 1 Persona 5 copie/unit on PS3 XD

Thanks I'm sure the Persona Faithful will appreciate the sales data metrics. So Royal generally outsold OG P5 interesting.

Yes, in the end Royal outsold Vanilla/Original P5. By November 2022, Persona 5 was still the best selling version (Persona 5 Royal was at 2.3M units), but by april 2023 all the ports versions sold around 1.7M copies bringing Persona 5 Royal total sales to 4M. In the end, More platforms = more accessible games for everyone, not to mention that I personally know a couple of people who bought this game 6 times lol

P5R was basically like 3 releases in itself. PS4 by itself, Steam by itself, and then the PS5/Xbox/Switch release. I might have contributed more than one of those 4 million. >.>

that is crazy how persona 5 vanilla sold 3.2 only on ps3 and 4 while royal only beat it by 800k even after ports and re-releases

Is this taking into account people who played on Game Pass?

I assume you ask a legit question, then the answer is no. Gamepass only count players, not sales/units.

Strikers did well.
