Fez sales top 200,000 on Xbox Live Arcade
One year on from release, Polytron Corporation’s much-praised puzzle platformer Fez has sold 200,000 copies on Xbox Live. Creator Phil Fish revealed the figure in a blog post, thanking players for their support, fanmail, and giving him the chance to “spend years driving myself crazy trying to make something beautiful so you can run around in it”. Fez arrives on PC on May 1 and is later headed to other platforms, although probably not 3DS or Wii U.
Thanks, woe.
