Final Fantasy 7 Remake launched in April 2020 on PlayStation 4, before the enhanced Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade launched on PS5 in June 2021, and on PC in December 2021. It has yet to release on Xbox.
IGN’s Final Fantasy 7 Remake review returned an 8/10: “Final Fantasy 7 Remake’s dull filler and convoluted additions can cause it to stumble, but it still breathes exciting new life into a classic while standing as a great RPG all its own.”
It’s worth comparing Final Fantasy 7 Remake’s sales figure to other recently released games in the long-running series. PS5 exclusive Final Fantasy 16 sold three million copies during launch week in June. Square Enix has yet to issue an updated figure for that game.
Final Fantasy 15, which launched on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in November 2016, sold 5 million units in its first day. It remains the fastest-selling game in the history of the series. As of May 2022, six years after release, Final Fantasy 15 had sold 10 million units worldwide, making it one of the best-selling Final Fantasy games of all time.
10 million copies of Final Fantasy XV have been sold or shipped to date worldwide!
