According to Gematsu, Sega Sammy Holdings recently summed up a number of sales numbers for their franchises. Leading the charge is the Sonic the Hedgehog series, which has collectively sold over 360 million units in its lifetime. But Persona isn't doing too shabby, with 8.5 million units sold across 13 total editions, with Persona 5 leading the charge.

Here's a breakdown of some of the more notable franchises between the two companies:

  • Megami Tenseiseries (Launched 1987) – Approx. 7.2 million units across 28 total editions (packaged and digital total)
