South Park: The Stick of Truth Sells 1.6 Million

Obsidian Entertainment's licensed role-playing game South Park: The Stick of Truth has sold more than 1.6 million copies, publisher Ubisoft announced on Tuesday as part of the company's latest earnings report.

Ubisoft CFO Alain Martinez revealed the figure during an earnings call this afternoon.

The game--which Ubisoft purchased for $3.2 million in the THQ bankruptcy auction--was released in March 2014 for last-generation consoles and PC, garnering a generally positive critical reception.

This is the first time Ubisoft has released an official sales number for The Stick of Truth. Last year, the publisher said the game enjoyed "better-than-expected" sales, with a strong performance digitally.

Obsidian recently released Pillars of Eternity and is currently working on a tank MMO called Armored Warfare.
