The achievement was achieved by counting physical copies shipped to retailers summed to full-game digital downloads sold on the PlayStation and Xbox Stores.

The game was released on Jan. 25 in Japan and on Jan. 29 worldwide. This, combined with the shipment numbers, makes Kingdom Hearts III the fastest-selling game of the series.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
