The game’s dedicated community, actively engaging with developers and celebrating the game’s unique attributes, has undoubtedly contributed to its sales success.

Looking ahead, the teams at Grasshopper Manufacture and Dragami Games have expressed their gratitude to fans for their overwhelming support. While no official statements regarding future DLC or potential sequels have been made, the strong sales figures for RePOP certainly suggest the possibility of future projects within the Lollipop Chainsaw universe. The future remains bright for Juliet Starling and her chainsaw-wielding adventures, making this milestone a particularly sweet victory for everyone involved.

While the sales figures are impressive, I still have some reservations about the changes made in the remaster. The new music just doesn’t compare to the original soundtrack. The core gameplay is fun, though.

Impressive sales, but I’m curious to see the breakdown across platforms. PS5 and XSX sales likely boosted the overall number. Still, a solid achievement for a niche title.
