Warriors Orochi 2 just came out in Japan, and hot off the heels of the announcement that it's also making its way to the states, KOEI wants you to know that the game is selling quite nicely. To date, 1.5 million copies have been sold worldwide. We don't fault a company for patting themselves on the back every once in a while, but we've got a feeling that KOEI's got a popular series on their hands and they want you to know about it... so that you can buy the sequel. If you haven't heard of it by now, well, all the more reason to see what all of the fuss is about, right?

"This milestone is a significant testament to the global impact not only of this game, but also to the tremendous admiration that fans worldwide share for the DYNASTY WARRIORS and SAMURAI WARRIORS characters," belched Amos Ip, Senior Vice President at KOEI Corporation. "As we celebrate, I would like to recognize and express our thanks to the video game world's greatest fans for making this achievement possible."

And with that, Amos donned his golden monocle and bid us good day.
