Sega accidentally reveals sales figures for Persona, Sonic and more

Japanese publishing giant Sega has inadvertently revealed sales information for some of its recent hits. 

The now-removed data was mistakenly included in a presentation that was uploaded to the investor relations website for parent company Sega Sammy. While it was quickly taken down, users over on ResetEra managed to archive the information

Persona 5 Royale – including its newly-released Remastered edition - has shifted over 7.25 million copies, while Persona 3 Reload has sold more than 2.07 million units. 

Sonic Frontier has sold more than 4.57 million units. Sonic Superstars, meanwhile, has shifted 2.43 million copies and Team Sonic Racing has been purchased over 3.5 million units. 

Total War: Three Kingdoms has sold 3.21 million units, coming in ahead of Total War: Warhammer 3 at 2.34 million. 

Turning to the Like a Dragon series, Infinite Wealth has sold 1.66 million copies, while The Man Who Erased Their Name is the only game in this list to not surpass one million units, selling 960 million copies.
