Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX sold about 140,000 copies in its first week in Japan. According to Dengeki, it saw an initial sell-through rate of 70 percent.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX is performing similarly to previous entries in the franchise. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky on DS moved 141,000 units in its first week before going on to sell 421,000 units in total. There’s also Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity for 3DS, which sold 151,000 units upon release and 330,000 copies in total.
Dengeki points out that the original versions of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX as well as Explorers of Time/Explorers of Darkness ended up selling over one million units, so we’ll have to see if this new Switch remake can match those same heights.
