Judgment Sold 97% of Worldwide Stock Despite Sales Halt

Sega’s Chief Creative Officer Toshihiro Nagoshi has confirmed Judgment has sold 97% of its stock worldwide.

Speaking during the latest Sega Nama broadcast, Nagoshi spoke about the controversy surrounding the arrest of Pierre Taki, and Sega’s decision to halt sales and recast him.


Speaking about the controversy itself, Nagoshi said he also voted to halt sales, but could see both sides when others said it was unrelated to the game. The fact it was so close to the game’s release was also a contributing factor for him.

He spoke how the game was number three on Amazon Japan’s sales ranking before the game was pulled. Despite this, he claims the game sold 97% of its stock, and inventory was almost gone worldwide.

Nagoshi also dispelled rumors that there were currently plans for Judgment 2 and Judgment 3.

Judgment was released back in December 2018 for Japan, and is set for a June 25th release in the Americas and Europe. This may be delayed however.

We’ll keep you guys posted.
