Great sales for a great game. It saved Platinum once, so here's hoping for a sequel helmed by the same people.
Well deserved, would be nice to have a sequel.. just saying
Nice. Great game, worth playing.
Deserved even more than that. Congrats.
I started playing it this weekend. This game is really special isn’t it? A paid Switch 2 upgrade would be awesome.
Great game! Man how it must feel to create a game that saves a whole company
Well done Square Enix and Platinum. Final Fantasy 7 Remake will be next to hit 10 mil.
Very much deserved. I don't think we get a sequel but we all want one.
The title says "ships". Does this mean this number only includes physical copies? Or are digital sales counted? Cuz if they don't count digital sales the figure might be a lot higher.
