Konami has a decent variety of video gaming franchises that they have accumulated over the decades, including Castlevania and Silent Hill. Lately, Konami has been giving some attention to the Metal Gear franchise. A collection of the first 3 Metal Gear Solid games is coming in October to multiple platforms, including the Switch, and Konami announced a remake of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater earlier this summer.
What might surprise you, however, is just how much the Metal Gear games have sold in the 36 years that have passed since the franchise’s debut in 1987. You see, Konami has recently confirmed on their website that sales of the Metal Gear series have officially “sold or downloaded over 60,000,000 copies worldwide”.
