June 12 marks 14 years since cheerleader Juliet Starling first swung a chainsaw through zombie-infested Romero High School. Dragami Games chose that date to drop a milestone: Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP has now sold over 400,000 units worldwide.
That number lands with some context worth knowing. The remaster hit 300,000 units back in August 2025, meaning the game has moved roughly 100,000 additional copies in the ten months since. That is a steady clip for a remaster of a 2012 cult action game, especially one that launched without the brand recognition of a major publisher behind it.
How RePOP built its audience over time
Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP launched on PS5, Xbox Series, Switch, and PC via Steam on September 12, 2024. Dragami Games followed that up with PS4 and Xbox One versions on December 2, 2024, and most recently brought the game to Switch 2 on May 28, 2026. That staggered rollout kept the title in front of new players across multiple release windows rather than burning out in a single launch week.
Here's the thing: the original Lollipop Chainsaw was a Grasshopper Manufacture title that spent years trapped in licensing limbo, unavailable digitally and commanding high prices physically. When Dragami Games brought it back as RePOP with updated mechanics and modern platform support, it was tapping into genuine pent-up demand from fans who had been waiting years for a legal way to replay it.
The Kogal costume and a contest coming full circle
The sales announcement comes paired with actual new content. Dragami Games confirmed the "Kogal" costume, which won the Dragami Special Award in the Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP Costume Design Contest, will arrive via a free update in late June 2026. The outfit replaces Juliet's signature twin tails with a side ponytail and features a semi-sheer blouse, giving the character a noticeably different look from her default design.
With the Kogal costume, all winning entries from the Costume Design Contest will be fully implemented in the game. That closes out a community-driven content pipeline that kept players engaged well beyond launch.
What most players miss about moments like this is how much they signal developer commitment. Dragami Games is still actively supporting a game that launched nearly two years ago, converting a fan-designed costume into real in-game content and timing the release to coincide with a franchise anniversary. That kind of post-launch attention matters for a series that spent years without any support at all.
What 400,000 means for the series going forward
For a remaster of a niche action game published by a relatively small studio, 400,000 units is a meaningful number. It confirms there is a real audience for Lollipop Chainsaw beyond nostalgia, and it gives Dragami Games a commercial foundation to work from.
The series has gone from licensing limbo to active development support, a community costume contest, and steady sales growth across a two-year window. Whether that translates into a new entry is speculation, but the trajectory is clearly positive. Fans who want to see more from Juliet and her chainsaw have a direct way to vote: the game is currently available across PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Switch, Switch 2, and PC.
If you are looking for other co-op games to fill time while waiting on that Kogal costume drop, or want to build out your gaming knowledge with some gaming guides in the meantime, both are worth bookmarking.
