Passpartout sells about 1M copies sold across platforms (PC ~650k, mobile ~400k); Passpartout 2 launches PC April, Switch Nov, prices $20.99, currently ~80k sales and ~800 overwhelmingly positive Steam reviews, localized into 18 languages. Marketing mixes influencer plays (Jazza drove a 6.7M‑view spike), Wholesome Direct and Steam Next Fest exposure, museum and school exhibits, a Wacom One bundle and a 1,500 VTuber models integration via Unity SDK. Key lessons: start marketing early, test regions, and use local partners for tricky markets.
