The barrier has been broken. Level 5 have shipped over 500,000 copies of Yo-kai Watch in Japan, the publisher announced this morning.

Additionally, it bears mentioning that Level 5 specifically pointed out that the 500,000 figure refers only to packaged copies, and doesn’t include download sales.

This announcement comes following a tweet from Level 5 International America, the company’s western branch, expressing an interest in bringing Yo-kai Watch to the west.
