The Street Fighter franchise has more than three decades of history, but it seems that the last episode, street fighter 5managed to overcome sales from street fighter 2, published nearly thirty years ago. The second, historical episode actually sold a total of 6.3 million copies, while the fifth episode managed to sell 6.6 million copies.
In short, despite a truly cracking launch, amid fierce reviews and mediocre sales, Street Fighter V has managed to catch up, update after update, and over the years it has done better than any of its predecessors, enriching itself with mods, fighters. and various extras.
Of course, it is necessary to take into account that only the basic version is considered for Street Fighter 2. As such, various additional releases like Super Street Fighter 2 or Turbo one don’t count, which would likely easily fill the 300,000 copy gap between the two games.
The data is still interesting because it shows the viability of the franchise even as the competition has become very fierce.
For the rest, we remind you that Street Fighter V is available for PC and PS4. It can also be played on PS5.
