Toukiden Sells Strong, Tecmo Koei’s Profits Are Up

Tecmo Koei reported a positive gain for the first quarter of this fiscal year. The publisher behind Dynasty Warriors had 6.5 billion yen in sales, up 10.9% compared to the previous fiscal year. Altogether, Tecmo Koei posted a net profit of 938 million yen ($9.6 million USD).

Toukiden, a hunting game with Japanese mythological creatures for PSP and PlayStation Vita, sold strong with 300,000 units since its launch on June 27. Toukiden will be released in North America for PlayStation Vita. Sales for Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky and Winning Post 7 2013 for PlayStation Vita were favorable. Repeat shipments and downloadable content sales were good too.

Tecmo Koei also said that they surpassed 24 million registered users for online and social games. Their line up includes Dynasty Warriors for One Million People and AKB48’s Ambition – yeah that’s a pun from Nobunaga’s Ambition.
