A member of the Sony PR team recently noted on Twitter that the White Knight Chronicles series has shipped a million units globally. Siliconera points out that the figure covers White Knight Chronicles, White Knight Chronicles EX Edition, White Knight Chronicles: International Edition (US/EU), White Knight Chronicles for PSP and White Knight Chronicles 2.
White Knight Chronicles 2 was recently announced for North America, and both it and the PSP game were announced for Europe. The franchise may not be doing Pokemon numbers, but it's not fading into the night either.

Kind of lame since it came out ~1 year ago (I think). Even lamer that they say "ship", not "sold". Hopefully the sequel will be much improved - from what I hear, it was mad Japanese, in a bad way.

This is sad, because this series has lots of potential and is extremely under-rated.
Sure, it has it's issues, but it still got bitch-slapped for reviews and sales. While it doesn't deserve extreme praise, it still deserves so much more than it received.
I will be buying #2 and hoping that the enemies can't attack me from across the map. Which was the only thing that hurt the first game for me.

A mediocre game that I much enjoyed. It could've been much better if they worked more on it.

WKC 2 Two for the price of one deal is still one of the most generous things a developer did this generation.
And not making a finished WKC1 file mandatory for the NA audience was pretty smart too.

SHIPPING one million copies WORLDWIDE for a game series that's been out for close to 3 years is something to brag about now? I wonder how fast it takes a Monster Hunter game to get to 1 million units SOLD, in just the Japanese market.

The one part I disliked was the big deal made over you creating your own main character and finding out that all that character did was be that jerk who you see waving at the camera in news reports. He was a useless hanger on.
