¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Edit: a bit more search fu, has come up with 360k worldwide, which is a decent amount, but I can see how that would be considered a failure compared to the previous.

Crusader Kings III Available Now!
The realm rejoices as Paradox Interactive announces the launch of Crusader Kings III, the latest entry in the publisher’s grand strategy role-playing game franchise. Advisors may now jockey for positions of influence and adversaries should save their schemes for another day, because on this day Crusader Kings III can be purchased on Steam, the Paradox Store, and other major online retailers.

I remember the first selling decently, I also remember the 2nd one's mp component which was similar to MPBT:3025 getting it's plug pulled extremely quickly by MS, which was the first sign to me that it flopped. 360k is nothing, especially nowadays with how much development cost and marketing cost have sky rocketed the last few years. Course then the terrible idea (sorry Mitch) to turn Shadowrun into an FPS and whalla! The entire Fasa catalog of IP sits dormant for a decade practically without a single official release beyond obscure mod teams.
