Square Enix admits Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Final Fantasy 16 profits "did not meet expectations"


Square Enix has admitted that profits of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Final Fantasy 16 "did not meet expectations".

Square Enix president Takashi Kiryu shared the results, stating: "In the HD Games sub-segment, we released multiple new titles, including major titles such as Final Fantasy 16 and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, but profits unfortunately did not meet our expectations." Firstly, Final Fantasy 14 expansion Dawntrail was released in July, which will likely have had a positive impact on overall company profits. Final Fantasy 14 producer and director Naoki Yoshida told Eurogamer the company would like to "further deepen the relationship with Xbox gamers" following the release of the MMORPG on Microsoft's console.
