The report also claims that the total number of copies of the series' games sold has reached 50 million! Although the number of players and sales are not the same metrics, this achievement is an encouraging signal for the future success of the series. Considering that it took Street Fighter V three months to sell 1.4 million copies, this new million mark indicates the continued growth and popularity of the franchise among fighting game fans.
