Media Create is reporting that Bravely Default: Flying Fairy sold 141,529 copies in its first week. That accounts for almost 85 percent of its initial shipment. Project X Zone, on the other hand, only sold through about 58 percent of its initial shipment. And while Bravely Default’s sales numbers do give us hope for a localization by Square Enix, Project X Zone’s sales might discourage Namco Bandai from releasing the game outside of Japan. We’ll just have to hope that isn’t the case.
Do you want more footage of Project X Zone? Well, then you’re in luck because there’s over an hour and a half of footage from the game for you to check out after the break.
You can check after the break for a look at the demo for Project X Zone at the Tokyo Game Show. For the moment, we can only hope this game will be released outside of Japan.
There’s a new trailer for Project X Zone after the break. It’s in Japanese and lasts for sixteen minutes, so have fun with that.
Based on an apparent conversation with a representative from Namco Bandai, the company is “aware about people wanting [Project X Zone] in the United States”, but are “waiting to see how [it] sells in Japan” before making decisions about whether it’ll be released in multiple regions. Supposedly, the game could come out in Fall 2013, or early 2014. It’s a thin thread of hope to rely upon, but hope nevertheless.
