Pokémon Legends: Arceus Sells 1.43 Million in Three Days in Japan

The latest entry into the Pokémon series, Pokémon Legends: Arceus, has hit a huge milestone in Japan - 1,424,657 units sold in its first three days on the market. Even with this outstanding opening, Legends still falls behind the launch numbers of Animal Crossing: New Horizons. You can see the top three Switch games in Famitsu’s “First Week Sales Ranking” numbers below:

  1. Animal Crossing: New Horizons - 1.88 million
  2. Pokémon Legends: Arceus - 1.43 million
  3. Pokémon Brilliant Diamond / Shining Pearl - 1.4 million

Famitsu sales numbers do not take into account digital copies sold, so the actual number of copies in Japanese players’ hands for Legends is greater than reported.
