Index’ “Persona 3 Social” Passes 1 Million User Mark [Social Games]

I

Tokyo-based (and listed) social game maker Index announced that Persona 3 Social, the social version of the classic RPG series, has crossed the 1 million user mark.

The players are spread over Persona 3 Social on Mobage (feature phone only), GREE (smartphone and feature phone), and Yahoo Mobage on the PC.

One million users isn’t really that spectacular a number in social gaming in Japan today, but Persona 3 Social has an impressive life cycle: Index released the first version of the game on Mobage as early as August 2010 (Yahoo Mobage followed one month later, while the GREE versions were added in February 2011).
