Milestone hit an incredible milestone (pun intended) with Hot Wheels Unleashed recently. In a press release ( Gematsu), the Italian studio announced that it has sold more than 1 million physical and digital game units worldwide. The company should be proud, as the game was the fastest to achieve such a feat among the in-house productions.
The arcade racing game was released on September 30, 2021, for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC — achieving that number in just under three months of market. CEO Luisa Bixio said the following in the statement:
“Since we announced Hot Wheels Unleashed in February, we’ve received thousands of heartfelt messages from fans. This milestone is the umpteenth show of affection from our passionate community.
Mattel head of digital gaming Andrew Chan added, “Hot Wheels is all about encouraging the challenger spirit. Hot Wheels Unleashed brings that mission to life for gamers of all ages. We’re proud of this exciting milestone. We look forward to seeing more fans discovering the game and new upcoming content as we head into 2022″.
The latest major game update brought lots of cool content for players. The DC Comics theme provided some cars inspired by Batman, Joker, Robin, and other cosmetics. See the details!
