Pokemon Legends: Z-A Has Super-Effective Start, Already Selling 5.8 Million Copies
"It's probably not a Pikachu shock to report that Pokemon is still popular. Case in point: After a week, Pokemon Legends: Z-A has already sold 5.8 million copies. The Pokemon Company revealed the launch figures in a press release, adding that roughly half of sales came from the Switch 2 Edition. The Pokemon Legends: Z-A sales numbers also include digital copies. As such, the Switch 2 bundle with the RPG is a boost,"
"This is the second Pokemon Legends game. In early 2022, Pokemon Legends Arceus sold 6.5 million copies in its first week, outpacing Pokemon Legends: Z-A so far. At the time, that was the best debut ever for a Pokemon game. However, later in 2022, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet sold 10 million copies in just three days, shattering the record. All of these games have helped push the Pokemon franchise to almost half a billion copies sold."
Pokemon Legends: Z-A launched on October 16 for Switch and Switch 2 and sold 5.8 million copies in its first week, including digital sales. Roughly half of those sales came from the Switch 2 Edition and the Switch 2 bundle with the RPG provided a sales boost. The original Pokemon Legends Arceus sold 6.5 million copies in its first week, while Pokemon Scarlet and Violet sold 10 million copies in three days. Combined releases have helped push the Pokemon franchise to nearly half a billion copies sold. Pokemon Legends Z-A will receive paid DLC called Mega Dimension.
