This past November, Aladdin X confirmed that Suika Game surpassed 4.4 million copies sold. Shortly after the launch in October, the game reached four million, and roughly 400,000 copies were sold in just a 72-hour timespan. The game will surely approach six million copies sold at the current pace in early 2024.
