Bravely Default: Flying Fairy is proving a commercial hit as well as a critical one, shipping an impressive one million copies worldwide. Square Enix announced (via Dengeki Online) the 3DS JRPG shifted 400,000 in Japan and 600,000 overseas, including download sales.
While it has its roots entrenched in old-school Final Fantasy, Bravely Default is still a new property, so the figures are strong. They’ve already made a similarly strong impression on president Yosuke Matsuda, who said the game’s global sales made his company reconsider its approach to JRPG development.
