Not all games need to sell 10 million copies to be happy, i.e. to break even. Earth Defense Force 6, for example, needed much less.. Publisher D3 Publisher and development studio Sandlot have in fact revealed with some satisfaction that the latest chapter in the action series in which you slaughter hordes of giant alien insects has sold more than 550,000 copies overalla result in line with the expectations of what is a medium-budget series that has been around for many years.
It should be noted that Sales data is global and not only related to Japan, where the series usually sells more. Furthermore, the publisher he did not communicate on which platforms it did best.
Essential but successful
Earth Defense Force 6 was released for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 on August 25, 2022 in Japan, followed by March 14, 2024 in Asia. The global versions were released on July 25, 2024, on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
In its first week of release in Japan, the game sold 300,000 copies. It has since sold another 250,000 copies, despite controversy over its requirement to install Epic Games’ Steam client.
In short, there is a good chance that we will hear about Earth Defense Force 7 soon.
