Dragon Quest X

At least from a player perspective, Dragon Quest X appears to be moderately successful for Square Enix. A total of 300,000 people are playing the RPG every day, producer Yosuke Saito has said.

Saito shared the news as part of a talk with Japanese website 4Gamer. He said:

“We’ve only released the game in Japan, so you’ll be getting only Japan’s numbers, but we have about 300,000 people a day who actively enjoy the game. Thanks to having released version 2 at the end of last year, we’ve had even more active players since then.

At the time, we feared that version 2 could have actually decreased the amount of players. However, that didn’t happen so we were relieved. Well, it was a little unexpected that people who purchased version 2 and haven’t even been to Lendagia [One of the main continents in Dragon Quest X].”

Runner2 isn’t the only Wii U eShop title confirmed to have sold one million copies this week. Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams has reached the same target, Black Forest Games has announced.

Black Forest Games’s managing director Andreas Speer said of the milestone:

“One million copies sold absolutely qualifies Giana Sisters as an indie hit – and yet it took a Kickstarter campaign to be able to develop the game. It wouldn’t have been possible in the classic way through publisher financing. It is only thanks to the dedication of our 6,000 backers that one million gamers (and counting) got the chance to play.”
