Forums - Gaming Discussion - Final Fantasy XV is the fastest selling FF game ever

ZODIARKrebirth on 07 August 2018

Final Fantasy XV has reached the 7.7 million units milestone, which makes it the fastest selling game in the history of the Square Enix series since it has done that in just 20 months.

On top of that, as the information comes from the game’s official website, this allows Final Fantasy XV to be the fourth highest selling product in the history of the franchise.

It deserves it

Solid game just outside my top 50 or 100 games just like FF Type 0 HD. I hope when I try World of FF, it is just as good or better.

If Japan was still huge for Final Fantasy like it was during PS1 and PS2 era, FF XV would be close to 10 million. Phenomenal sales for the most unpolished, unfocused, unfinished, disjointed yet still most unique main FF to date. Despite my negativity and being somewhat disappointed by the final product (even after all the updates and DLC), I still enjoyed a lot the good things about the game. I have some weird love/hate relationship with this game. Final Fantasy is my favourite franchise ever and I like every main FF that i've played (IV, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X, XII, XIII and XV, I must be one of the few that likes them all) so I'm happy FF is still in good health. Waiting for the next FF to be announced.

Will buy this for PC, frame rate was pretty negative on PS4 to be honest.

I think that's well deserved. FFXV may be a very disjointed experience that has more than a few issues, but on the whole I still think it's a genuinely great game, and a nice return to form for the series after the XIII-trilogy.

Wasn't the bulk of that (about 5 million) on the first day? I think it's a good game and I'm happy it did well, I wonder how many of those decided to buy the dlc.

It always annoys me when there's articles or whatever about "fastest selling game" since there's really no such thing. In reality it's the fastest selling over the first 20 months. That's all. Does that mean it's the fastest selling over 10 months? Quite possibly. 22 months? Could well be. 5 years? Seems doubtful. It's definitely not the fastest selling unless you add in the correct time period though.

Isnt this also the first FF to have a worldwide launch? If i recall previous titles released like a year later in the West, that probably helps alot with this comparison.

Regardless, 7.7m and growing are great sales.

Not sure how it is on base PS4, but on a Pro it runs at a locked 30fps or 40-50fps depending on which setting you pick... oh, and 60fps if you look directly up into the sky and do nothing at all, now that's a true 60fps experience right there! :P 

Runs best on the base model, 30 FPS with good frame pacing, the performance mode on the pro was a bit of a mess.

are the story changes done?
I want to jump into FF15 but considering they wanted to add and change a lot I thought I would just wait.

Not yet, should be done early 2019, they showed a timeline of when to expect those DLC and updates.
