Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP Reaches Impressive Sales Milestone

Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP, the action-packed remaster released late last year, has reportedly surpassed 200,000 units sold! This success story demonstrates significant fan demand, despite initial technical hiccups and censorship controversies. The game's impressive sales figures highlight a clear appetite for this unique title.

Developed by Dragami Games (though originally created by Grasshopper Manufacture, known for No More Heroes), Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP delivers a stylish, overhauled visual experience and enhanced gameplay features. The remaster maintains the core hack-and-slash action, placing players in the role of chainsaw-wielding cheerleader Juliet Starling, battling hordes of zombies.

Months after its September 2024 launch across current and last-gen consoles and PC, Dragami Games announced the achievement of over 200,000 sales via a tweet.

Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP's Triumphant Sales Figures

The game's narrative centers on Juliet Starling, a San Romero High cheerleader who uncovers her zombie-hunting heritage amidst a school-wide undead invasion. Players utilize Juliet's trusty chainsaw in exhilarating combat, reminiscent of titles like Bayonetta.

While the original 2012 release on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 boasted over a million sales, RePOP's success is still notable. The original game benefited from the unique collaboration between Goichi Suda and James Gunn, whose contributions to the story and writing undoubtedly contributed to its popularity.

The future of Lollipop Chainsaw remains uncertain, with no announcements regarding potential sequels or DLC. However, the remaster's sales success bodes well for future remasters of cult classic games. This positive trend is further supported by the recent release of Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered, another Grasshopper Manufacture title brought to modern platforms.
