GamesIndustry.biz writes: “Famitsu’s latest data, shared with GamesIndustry.biz, shows that the second part of Square Enix’s Final Fantasy 7 remake saw the second biggest launch month ever in terms of physical sales for a PS5 game in Japan. It was beaten only by Final Fantasy 16, which sold 336,000 units in June.
Rebirth also sold almost triple the number of copies managed by the next best-selling game of the month: Nintendo’s Princess Peach: Showtime, which debuted with 105,000 copies sold after two weeks. That’s more than double the 49,000 that Super Princess Peach for the Nintendo DS sold at launch 19 years ago.”
