2025 has been off to a great start so far for Koei Tecmo, with the publisher recently announcing Ninja Gaiden 4, while also releasing one of the highest rated Dynasty Warriors games in quite some time. While we will have to wait to see the long-term impact of these titles, the publisher has shared an updated list of its current best-selling franchises.

As part of the company’s fiscal earnings report, publisher Koei Tecmo shared an updated list of its best-selling franchises alongside their total unit sales.

As of the end of 2024 (prior to the launch of Dynasty Warriors: Origins), the best-selling franchises were as follows:

• Dynasty Warriors (21M)
• Nobunaga's Ambition (10M)
• Samurai Warriors (8M)
• Romance of the Three Kingdoms (8M)
• Ninja Gaiden (7.5M)
• Nioh (7.5M)
• Atelier (7.5M)
• Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty (5M)

It is worth noting that Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty in particular lists its total users, and not copies sold – likely due to it being a day-one Game Pass addition.

Regardless, it is interesting to see the current state of Koei’s major franchises as of the end of 2024. With the likes of Dynasty Warriors and Ninja Gaiden returning after so long, it’s quite possible the list could look very different this time next year.

Dynasty Warriors Origins provides a compact narrative from the Yellow Turban Rebellion up through the Battle of Chibi and the formation of the Three Kingdoms. While the amnesiac protagonist is about as interesting as a brick, his prowess to change the tide of battle is a true force to be reckoned with.

Despite some of its shortcomings, such as the excessive amount of busywork for quests, guild development, and other mechanics that dragged the experience down, the first proper adaptation of Fairy Tail in JRPG form developed by Gust managed to be rather successful, mostly thanks to the faithful rendition of the charming characters created by Hiro Mashima. Still, no one expected the game to receive a sequel, so its announcement earlier this year came as a complete surprise.
