Their Q4 forecast is just 100m USD higher revenue than 2023's, so it doesn't look like SE was expecting more than ~3m first-month sales throughout March (assuming everything else is more or less flat and Forspoken flopped as badly as it is rumored).

It'll definitely be doing better than Forespoken did, since FF is an evergreen brand, and Forespoken was new, it's marketing didn't exactly set the world on fire, was mostly memed on, and by it's time of release, it both ran poorly and had poorly written dialogue and just got shat on and faded into obscurity. 

Is their 3m projection for PC sales first month?.

Forspoken flopping doesn't really get talked about too much either, but I think that cut Square-Enix deep. They were betting on that being the next big brand to diversify their company away from the exact problem they're in now (decline of their main brand, Final Fantasy). That game doesn't look like it was cheap to make either even if it wasn't great.
