PlatinumGames have taken to YouTube to announce that their 2017 RPG Nier: Automata has sold more than 4 million physical and digital copies.
In the video, designers Takahisa Taura and Hideki Kamiya expressed their gratitude towards fans for “keeping the lights on” at the studio.
Prior to Nier, PlatinumGames had been seeing a string of lukewarm receptions to their efforts with games such as Star Fox Zero and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan.
Other members of the team took to Platinum’s blog to thank fans, as well as post some sweet art (such as this piece from UI and concept artist Hisayoshi Kijima).
Currently, the team are rumoured to be working on the third entry in the Bayonetta series. Nier: Automata is available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
