Unicorn Overlord gross sales have topped 1 million copies since its early March launch.

Vanillaware’s tactical-RPG bought 500,000 copies inside its first month, and its momentum has grown since then. At this level, it stays a console recreation for Xbox Collection X|S, PlayStation 4 and 5, and Nintendo Swap.

“The Unicorn Overlord workforce expresses their deepest gratitude for the great help they’ve acquired from gamers,” wrote Atlus in a press launch.

How Unicorn Overlord matches into Vanillaware’s historical past and Atlus’ 2024

For comparability, the final two Vanillaware video games, Dragon’s Crown and 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, each took a number of years (and releases on a number of programs) to promote 1 million copies. This makes Unicorn the fastest-selling Vanillaware title in current reminiscence to hit that milestone.

When it launched in March, Unicorn Overlord was surrounded by different video games, together with Ultimate Fantasy 7 Rebirth. The robust launch slate initially of 2024 makes Unicorn’s efficiency so notable.

General, Atlus (and its dad or mum firm Sega) has had a stable output this yr. Persona 3 Reload grew to become Atlus’ fastest-selling title ever, and Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance and Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth have been robust performers commercially.
