Across like 6 games & more than 3 platforms.
Only dubs that matter are DB, Kai, & Super. Nothing else.

I looked it up, it's apparently 20 million across the Ultimate Ninja series, not just Ultimate Ninja Storm series.

So that's 20 million from like 15 games.

The Ultimate Ninja Storm series only has 6 games.
Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm
Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2
Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations
Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3
Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Revolution
Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4

Technically, they're part of a larger "Ultimate Ninja" series, but only those are Storm games & we have the games on PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, & Switch for those 6 games.

Yeah but the video where the 20 million figure was given just said it was for the Ultimate Ninja series. Not Ultimate Ninja Storm specifically.

You specifically asked about Storm, though.

I found this thread through Google and I saw newer sales figures than what was posted here.

https://nintendosoup.com/dragon-ball-xe ... pectively/

"Across all platforms worldwide, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 has moved over 5 million copies while Dragon Ball FighterZ has sold over 4 million copies."

So the last four Dragon Ball console games have sold almost 20 million units combined?

Yes, and those numbers are light years ahead of what they were selling during the ps3/360 era, where all 5 games combined might not have even crossed the 5 million mark.

Well according to this thread the four games before it probably only sold like 3 million.

Tekken 7 sold 5 million and Street Fighter V less so and FighterZ has sold 5 million in a shorter amount of time.

With FighterZ moving up to 6 million just in the past six months, I can only imagine that XV2 is probably close to if not over 7 million at this point. I do wonder if FighterZ will surpass XV2 eventually. Going forward, it does seem to have better DLC support (though the fact that XV2 is still supported is amazing).

Hopefully we get an update on Kakarot soon. Eventually, I think it will be the fourth best selling game in the series (behind XV2, FighterZ & XV1). These past 5 years have definitely done wonders for the series! A Switch release of Kakarot would definitely help sales.

Yep, figured that would be the case.

I wonder if XV2 & FighterZ can reach 10 million in their lifetime. Probably not. I also wonder if FighterZ will surpass XV2.

I doubt it. Maybe FighterZ if it gets ported to the new consoles and gets some sort of Complete Edition which isn't all that expensive.
I think it will surpass XV2.

I think that will eventually come even if Bandai loves its DLC (seeing what they're doing for Tekken 7).
Anyway, with 5 millions for FighterZ we can expect longer support like they're doing for XV2 or even a sequel.
