Bottom line: if a game sells gangbusters or even simply at expectations, the developers have no reason to be tight-lipped about it.
There was many posters around this site just going off of reviews and how quiet a release it was (since it dropped on the exact same day dragon's dogma 2 did) that automatically assumed rise of the ronin was a failure. "game sucks" (just parroting what the more negative reviews were saying about the game), "PS5 exclusives don't sell shoulda' been on PC", "etc. etc."

Come to find out thanks to tecmo-koei's financial updates that the game's sales are surpassing the nioh series and that its been on top of sales charts in japan since it's release. Outside of that financial update they never said a word about the game.

Sometimes companies just for whatever reason opt out of doing constant updates.

*It was also the exact same way with super mario rpg on the switch. No one knew it did pretty well for certain until nintendo did their financial update*
