Kingdom Hearts is definitely one of the best RPG series to ever come out if we’re looking at it just based on its total sales, and we can also see that there are quite a few games in the series to make up for its ludicrously expanded story, but not all of them are as popular as the mainline games. Despite this, all of the Kingdom Hearts games have sold over 1 million copies, which is an excellent feat.

Kingdom Hearts III sales reached over 6.7 million copies within two years of its release.

• This was announced during the Kingdom Hearts 20th anniversary event.
• The game was the 8th best-selling game of 2019.
• It is also the fastest-selling game in the franchise, racking up more than 5 million units shipped within one month of its release.

There is no doubt that Kingdom Hearts III was the best and most successful of the series, and its sales and revenue can attest to that wonderfully. While there is no official news regarding Kingdom Hearts IV, and there will most likely not be anything for at least a few years, we can take solace in the fact that IV is likely to perform just as well as III, if not better.

At the end of the 2019 fiscal year, Square Enix’s revenue increased by 8.2%, but net profits fell by 28.5%.

• Kingdom Hearts III and Tomb Raider did not manage to save Square Enix’s profits from declining in the 2019 fiscal year.
• Those values expressed in dollars are $2.48 billion and $169 million, respectively.
• The company’s digital entertainment segment accounted for most of its revenue at $1.87 million.
• The operating profit of the same segment fell by 33.1% year-on-year to $266 million.
• The main representing games of Square Enix during that time were Octopath, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Just Cause 4, and Kingdom Hearts 3.
• The fall in profits was attributed to higher release costs for new titles.

Like any other big gaming company, Square Enix has faced some financial problems in the past because it could not keep control of the costs for new games to be released, which took a toll on its profits in 2019. This was all in spite of their bigger games performing quite well, which was an oddity, considering the situation.

For the final line of stats, we have some general numbers concerning Kingdom Hearts I, II, and III on the Twitch scene, as many fans of the series prefer to sit back and enjoy the gameplay as opposed to getting into it themselves. We can see that Kingdom Hearts III is the most popular game in its series on Twitch, for obvious reasons, and it blew the other two titles out of the water.

To sum up

Even though the story and legacy of Kingdom Hearts are massive, there is surprisingly not much information available that can allow us to display everything in the form of statistics, but this should still suffice. The series has seen its ups and downs as well as its fair share of criticism, but that has not stopped it from claiming the hearts of generations of gamers, something it will continue to do for the foreseeable future. We sincerely hope that you have enjoyed what we’ve had to present here and that you’ll return when we update this with brand-new Kingdom Hearts IV content!
