The Exit 8 sales exceed 3 million copies

Impressive success of a compact indie horror

Total worldwide sales of the psychological walking simulator and anomaly-hunting game The Exit 8 have officially exceeded 3 million copies across all current platforms.

The game, which originally released on PC and later made its way to Nintendo Switch and other platforms, became a true viral hit. Its concept is simple, yet simultaneously eerie and captivating:

• The player must find Exit 8 from an endless Japanese subway passageway;
• The main rule is to carefully monitor the surroundings and notice the slightest anomalies;
• If you notice anything suspicious, turn back immediately; if everything is clear, keep moving forward.

Thanks to its original concept and huge popularity among streamers, The Exit 8 sparked an entire new subgenre of similar puzzle games.
