Square Enix have announced that the day one shipment and digital sales for Final Fantasy XV, released simultaneously across the globe earlier this week, has exceeded five million units – becoming the fastest selling game in the history of the Final Fantasy series.
Receiving critical acclaim from fans across the world for its beautiful world design and graphical quality, combined with open-world freedom and an exciting new battle system, the game is the first in the series’ history to have a simultaneous global launch. Square Enixwill continue to work on projects to expand and enhance customer enjoyment of Final Fantasy XV, releasing additional content and associated series products.
To commemorate the release of the game, numerous special launch events also took place across the globe, in Japan, Europe (UK and Belgium), North America (USA, Canada), Central and Southern America (Mexico) and China (Shanghai), celebrating the release with expectant fans from all regions of the planet.
The game is available now worldwide for the Xbox One and PS4 system.
“But the achievements don’t stop there – Final Fantasy XV also broke the record in Japan for the game with the most downloads on its day of release. Elsewhere in Asia, its total units shipped and digital downloads surpassed the record for total day one game sales. It just goes to show that Final Fantasy XV is truly something to be reckoned with!
Square Enix have said they will continue expanding and enhancing the experience of Final Fantasy XV, with additional content and further associated products. Given the huge start it’s already had – with Kingsglaive, Brotherhood and everything else – it looks like this is going to be huge!”
