Persona 5 remains Atlus' highest selling game of all time. It's also exhibiting amazing legs for a JRPG, given that it continues to sell a year on from release.

Super well deserved.

Great to hear. Wasn't my favorite Persona but I'm hoping we don't have to wait nearly as long for P6 and they shake up the formula a bit.

Well deserved, it's probably my favorite game of all time. Between this, FFXV, and Nier, I'm so glad that JRPGs have done well this generation.

Not bad for the type of game it is, I'm already getting the urge to play through it again

I wonder how much of an investment the game was. It's so big and has such great presentation I assume it must have cost quite a decent amount.

Have we ever had a PS3 vs PS4 breakdown? I can't imagine the PS3 print run was particularly big.

Great to hear, this game has legs selling 200k copies in 6 months well over a year after release.

But for those looking for a P3FES/P4G port/rerelease it doesn't look as good.

Yaaassss!

Also, to a couple of people, Atlus makes money off of those shipments. If the game wasn't selling they wouldn't be shipping units. Please stop with this "but shipped" nonsense.

Crazy that a lower budgeted more niche and less famous franchise like Nier had a bigger selling game with Automata than Persona did with P5.

Awesome. My GOTY of last year, with well deserved sales.

This was, of course, all thanks to Tae. Once people say goth doc, they had to know more.

Great achievement and well deserved. All I want now is an update on SMTV at E3.

Well, Neir is on PC and sold well there. Atlus should really look into their strategy because they are leaving money on the table.

There aren't words to express my love for this game.. I literally hated making progress because I knew it meant I was closer to the end. Truly an amazing game, glad it sold so well. Hopefully this means good things for P5 Crimson.

Who ever said this among people who know the industry? One of the best-selling franchises of all time, which is still a top-seller with 15-16m on an entry basis, is turn-based.
"It doesn't count"

It is a common sentiment among many that turn based games don't have a market, including, yes, those in the know.
