Since launch, Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed has shipped nearly 1 million units. SEGA’s third quarter fiscal results reveals that 930,000 copies were moved on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U, and PS Vita in North America and Europe. As that figure accounts for sales through December 1, Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed was able to achieve fairly high shipment number in roughly a month and a half.
