In one month, Freedom Wars Remastered has sold 21,020 units on PC

Discussion

Since there's an impression that the possibility of a sequel hinges on sales of the first game, sales performance has been a common question among Freedom Wars communities. But it turns out we can piece together almost exactly how many units have sold from within the game itself. The League of Panopticons tells you how many sinners have joined up with each panopticon, and since it's mandatory to choose one, and virtually all players will have connected to the internet at some point, we can safely assume that the ratio of sinners to sales is nearly 1:1.

Where things get tricky is that the playerbase is divided into multiple platforms, and maybe platforms are also divided into multiple regions? I haven't tested the second theory yet to see if changing my region produces different numbers.

But, as it stands as of today, the Steam version of the game in North America adds up to 21,020 sinners. Since this is Steam, there are sure to be a certain number of sales where the game is sitting in libraries unplayed, but with a player count that low, unplayed copies are probably insignificant.

Anyone want to do the honors of tallying up other platforms/regions? If we put them all together, we should have a very close estimate of total sales!
