Contrary to its reputation for claiming poor sales performance, Square Enix surprisingly reported strong figures in their latest financial statement.
In a surprising turn of events, the sales of Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake surpassed expectations – a success the company is proudly showcasing. Is it a glimpse into an alternative universe we’re experiencing?
The publishing company has seen a boost in its digital entertainment sector’s revenue due to stronger-than-expected sales of Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake.
Launched in November of the previous year, the revamped version received widespread acclaim from both critics and enthusiasts. In terms of commercial success, it managed to sell more than 2 million copies (taking digital sales into account) within approximately a month, with Japan accounting for at least half of those sales.
Of course, given its size in terms of budget, this resurgence could be considered a modest endeavor relative to projects like Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Final Fantasy 16. Consequently, the projected sales figures for it would likely be more moderate or attainable.
It’s evident that even Square Enix is taken aback by something, which suggests that they might want to focus more heavily on their library of timeless role-playing games. Perhaps it’s a sign that not all remakes need to be extravagantly expensive.
Furthermore, the same data indicates a significant drop in profits for the publisher’s free-to-play games focused on mobile devices. This decrease was substantial enough to impact Square Enix’s total revenue despite the positive reception of Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake. It seems even successful ventures can’t always prevent setbacks!
