Scarlet Nexus Reaches Impressive Sales and Player Milestone With Xbox Game Pass
Bandai Namco's Scarlet Nexus has seen critical and commercial success since it released last year. This action-RPG combines Japanese culture with various cyberpunk and sci-fi elements, with an in-depth combat system that also has spectacular anime-esque visuals. The game has also received a few updates post-launch from Bandai Namco, including a set of three DLC packs. The third and final DLC Pack for Scarlet Nexus focuses on antagonist Karen Travers, exploring his backstory and relationships.
The sales of the game were boosted last year when Scarlet Nexus was brought to the Xbox Game Pass alongside AI: The Somnium Files. It's an enticing JRPG for Game Pass subscribers, especially for those who were interested in similar PlayStation exclusives such as Persona 5. It also helps that Xbox did a lot of marketing for Scarlet Nexus as well when it first launched on the consoles, with a demo for the game being a timed exclusive to Xbox a few weeks before its launch.

These numbers include both digital downloads and physical versions of the game.
