https://automaton-media.com/en/news/square-enix-sees-88-profit-growth-citing-strong-performance-across-all-categories-of-its-video-game-business/

Kiryu-san has saved the company.

>Square Enix has announced its financial results for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2027 (source: GameBiz). According to the report, the company saw large-scale growth in revenue and all profit metrics, with operating profit up 88.6% year-over-year.

>The strong performance was driven by Square Enix’s digital entertainment (video game) business, which saw revenue grow by 51.8% and operating profit grow by 91.8% year-over-year. According to the company, all categories of its game business (HD games, MMO, mobile/PC) saw improved performance, with sales of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales highlighted as steady contributors in the console sector.

>Additionally, Square Enix’s catalogue titles (games released in past fiscal years) also saw a boost in sales compared to the previous year, contributing to overall revenue and operating profit.

>Over in the MMO/mobile/browser sector, Final Fantasy XIV saw increased revenue and player activity, but profit margins increased only slightly due to expenses related to the game’s upcoming expansion. The live-service titles Dissidia Duellum Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest Smash/Grow were highlighted as high contributors to both revenue and profits.

Thank fucking Christ. Despite my issues with the company (no upgrade path for DQ11 switch 2 edition?) they are honestly one of the greatest game companies ever. I’m playing FF14 for the first time since it released on Switch 2 and have completely fell in love with it. I can’t believe how good it is and how much fun I’m having. Beautiful 11/10 music, gorgeous world and scenery, fun classes, engaging story. I hope they continue to improve

I guarantee Switch 2 will sell less copies of Revelation than both PS5 and PC and still hasn't done even half the numbers of either for Rebirth and Remake. The most notable thing this year for SE was 7R topping the Steam charts consistently.

Why has Final Fantasy and other legacy SE franchises aside from Kingdom Hearts failed to appeal to Gen Z and younger?

But I wonder why they are so bad at appealing to people at my age and younger. Maybe Nintendo should just buy SE

Elliot was #1 in the eshop for weeks. Definitely more of a tendie franchise that doesn’t translate to strong PC sales. And judging by the game (modest visuals, modest gameplay, reused assets constantly because there is a time travel mechanic) it probably cost the same as a shoestring and a soup can lid to make

more like not spending any money on development since they're probably still recouping costs on these piece of shit games

it's something square enix even announced as something that they want to rectify, too, it's the explicit reason we're getting resonance, a non-gacha remake of brave exvius

I don’t blame anyone for thinking SE was going out of business soon because they’ve had bad financial reporting for years and their biggest franchises like FF were underperforming

This is true in general, but 7R has a highly schizophrenic poster hounding it on top of that, making it so much worse.

Lol they’re making all their money from fake digital sales
>>
>>745155109
Those financial reports all showed them having positive revenue though, companies don’t close when they make money. Even their biggest flop quarter with avengers made money. It’s just a matter of them making less money than their projections. This leads to layoffs and firings, or maybe a sale not a bankruptcy. It was never ever close to going out of business.

So SE sold 11 million units total last quarter

Because it's too much investment for not enough ROI.
Translating even just V1 of DQX would require more effort than translating any other DQ game, in addition to overhead from server costs, in addition to Square Enix adding a THIRD active MMORPG to their output, one which is already wrapping up in Japan.

DQ is a series that is already unpopular in the west. It's not a series that harbors people who would play MMORPGs outside Japan. There's no real value in doing DQX for the west. I bet if it launched tomorrow, fucking nobody here would actually play it for more than a couple hours.

>Yes, free money.
It's not. These remakes spend three years in development and I'd really only class DQ3 as successful.
1&2 as well as 7R were abysmal failures for DQ though. Neither crossed 600K (let alone a million) and none of the remakes garnered any interest outside Japan. Whole project is basically a failure on all fronts.
>>745156697
>They’re all pretty close to the source material just better graphics and small improvements here and there
You have not played a single DQ game.
DQ3 sure, MAYBE, is close. It still has a ton of changes but those are far more ancillary.
DQ1 is a completely different game. It cannot even remotely be compared to its original, and it's a far worse game as well.
DQ2 is also a completely different game that is arguably better it's not.
And DQ7 just got fucking raped. Tons of content and monsters missing, the story expansions are milquetoast at best, the combat is braindead easy, the game holds your hand on every difficulty, characters don't die anymore, etc., it's a fucking shitshow.

My dude, Sony themselves failed to redact in the 2023 Microsoft suit that like 60%+ collective playtime was on CoD, that most of their active software came from games like Fortnite, and that budgets have inflated for their non-live service games. Most people with a PS5 are, by Sony’s own metrics, not interested in playing Final Fantasy!

No, I mean, it's a franchise that's existed for 16 years and it's only sold like 8 million total. VIIRemake sold that on its own and that's a failure.

>>745163084

Nintendo doesn’t consider Xenoblade a failure. No metrics consider it a failure. Failures are always determined in relation to their budgets.

>It's crazy to think games with such a massive pool of shared assets would be considered a failure for selling an additional 1.5 million or more.
We actually know they didn't sell more than 1 million because SE would've announced that, as they do for all their games that cross that benchmark.

Famitsu sales topped out at 500K.
A majority of DQ sales tend to by physical.
DQ3's famitsu sales topped out at close to 2.5 million.

It's easy to assume at least 3 million of that 4 million is DQ3 on its own, especially since, again, SE would announce if an individual title sold a million copies, rather than announcing multiple titles sold 4 million copies.

Schizo's been fuming for 500 posts now and had to add his signature at the bump limit. It's pretty funny how mad he is about SE.
>>
>>745164331
look at all them assholes with no self control... sad.
>>
>>745164312
No, I'm saying based on known information, it's more likely that DQ3 accounts for over 3 million of the sales.
It had more legs initially and sold 5x more in the same time period as DQ1&2. It also was on the market for over a year longer than 1&2.
>>
>>745164345
Nobody itt is even mad aside from the people on the other side of the argument. They are all seething schizos. Everyone on my side is calm and cool and doesn't even care.

You're making assumptions. You have no way of knowing what makes up the 4 million milestone beyond the 2.5 million.
>>
>>745164380
If he could channel that anger into something with meaning this guy could... well... bitch like crazy and that's about it. But at least we wouldn't have to deal with it. kek.

Damn, this really struck their nerves.

>>745164460
Wrong about what? You're melting down about Nintendo or something.
>>
>>745164447
Calm assholes vs crazy assholes... yeah you're a bunch of assholes. Screw yuh all.
>>
>>745164470
You're making assumptions that DQ1&2 quietly sold a million more copies after abysmal performances for the games first couple months.
That 4 million announcement came not long after 1&2 left Famitsu as well (which it only hit 500K in again), so it's even more absurd.
>>
>>745164482
He can't. This is all he can manage to do with his life at this point.
>>
>>745164502
Yeah totally you should do it more
>>
>>745164567
You're deranged. You have no argument, just baseless assumptions. If DQ was big enough on this board, you'd probably be notorious.
>>
>>745153332
nta but rebirth won the partner awards thing with Black myth and Elden ring, which indicates that it did sell well even back when it was a ps5 exclusive

He's been samefagging that post nonstop now to feel better about himself, LOL.

>>745164581
You always say exactly what I'm thinking

>>745164665
He saw unacceptable SE news then proceeded to spend his day melting down about it. He has nothing else in his life.
>>
>>745164626
>You have no argument, just baseless assumptions.
That's you actually. You're assuming a hidden million sales from one game within the span of about two months, instead of the other, far more successful game that had over a year to accumulate them.
>>
>>745164620
DQ1&2 HD2D cost Square Enix $6 Billion to develop and single-handedly ruined them. They should've known no one cares about turn-based combat.
>>
>>745164662
They can pretend it didnt make them mad but their behaviour betrays the claim
>>
>>745164716
Nope, you're making baseless assumption and presenting them as facts. This is lolcow behavior.
>>
>>745164743
>Nope, you're making baseless assumption and presenting them as facts.
Which is what you're doing.

Hey schizo I know you’re reading this. You know how you have thoughts such as “square enix is worthless trash why, won’t it die already?”

Swap square enix for (You) and that what everyone who has ever encountered you thinks about you especially your family
>>
>>745164737
Maybe samefagging some more would help.

retard, i’m not the one dogging on nintendo or square here
>>
>>745164769
My argument is an asset flip costs little to make, and thus even 500k sales would be a success. However, the milestone suggests much more. They'd announce 3 million for DQ3 if it had reached that. You're a weirdo.
>>
>>745164773
Careful there son it almost sounds like people shitting on this company DOES make you mad
>>
Welp, still no official sales numbers presented. Grim.
>>
>>745164876
Yep it really does you should dedicate even more time to your crusade
>>
>>745163508
as much as people are annoyed by minigames, i don't think that there's enough queen's blood content in the game. The challenges at the gold saucer are a bit too easy.
>>
>>745164887
They're simply too high to count
>>
>>745164773
Don't worry, anon. We all know the schizo is a lifeless, friendless loser who can do nothing else with his life. He's been doing it for years. His family DEFINITELY would be better off without the burden of caring for him.
>>
>>745164965
Barry unfortunately is like this.
>>
>>745164864
>My argument is an asset flip costs little to make,
No, this part of the argument was that in the extremely short span of time between DQ1&2 leaving famitsu, it somehow accumulated 3x its lifetime sales.
>>
>>745165012
Yep.
>>
>>745164965
He's been making you seethe daily for HOW long?
>>
>>745164887
it sold 0 (zero) copies because they haven't announced the sales numbers.
>>
Well this thread taught me that you can say whatever bad things you want about SE and nobody will get mad about it.
>>
>>745164876
If your only reason for living is “well maybe I can convince myself that I make other people mad” you’re certainly going to kill yourself.

This is the internet. You’ll never know anyone’s actual reaction to you. They could be seething, they could be jerking off to it, they could be laughing. The only person who you actually make mad is your mom when you don’t join them for dinner because you’re too busy seething at some gay shit
>>
>>745165117
He says after spending 4 hours shitposting about SE and getting upset to the point of samefagging. Lol @ ur life.
>>
>>745165117
You’ve fucked your mental up so badly over a shitty video game company
>>
>>745165124
If you aren't mad and you're actually laughing then we both win. What's strange is how badly you want everyone to stop posting the things that don't bother you and that make you laugh.
>>
>>745165013
90%+ of SE's sales are digital. You have no trail to follow. You'll have to accept the milestone they've announced. Anything beyond that is pure wishful thinking on your part.
>>
>SE announces it's doing well
>schizo melts down and spends all day shitposting about how it's not true and how all the numbers are just made up to fool people, especially him, then he smugly says other people are mad repeatedly

Why would I be here if I wanted you to stop posting? You are the entertainment.

You are a freak show, a side show, passing amusement. I will go along my day and you’ll be in the same freak show tomorrow like you always are
>>
>>745165278
Nobody here even likes or cares about SE
>>
>>745165310
Kill yourself, retard. I know this is the emotional highlight of your day, but you shouldn't be so addicted you need to pursue it across threads.
>>
>>745165218
>90%+ of SE's sales are digital.
That includes DLCs and microtransactions, which of course includes their MMORPGs and their in-game stores and expansions, as well as their highly popular mobile titles.
This argument makes zero sense considering we can already account for 75% of the sales for DQ1&2 and 3. It's just a missing 25% that wasn't logged in famitsu.
>>
>>745165213
Yep dude everyone wants you to stop posting about daddy square enix once you vanquish us the legion of the ff cultists your life will have meaning but we cannot allow you to dishonor our god square enix

nah mate you’re just an obsessed faggot getting the piss taken out of him, like a shazamtranny in er threads
>>
>>745165419
Your post is the one that doesn't make sense. I have to wonder. DQ has a general thread. Are you by any chance a known quantity? This is reaching schizo levels of absurd.
>>
>>745165420
Tell me more about me
>>
The irony is square enix will probably outlive him
>>
>>745165491
It's curious how you keep wanting to divert the conversation to be about lolcows or whatever. You're probably a schizophrenic who has never played DQ but must die on the hill of defending it simply to spite Final Fantasy or something retarded like that.
>>
>>745153394
lmao

Has SE had a negative quarter in the last 10 years?
>>
>>745165594
You're desperate to label DQ1 and 2 failures while refusing to accept their obvious part in the announced milestone. DQ3 would've had a 3 million milestone if it had reached it. You ARE someone of note in the community, I can just tell.

When I suggested that "asset flips," games that are made using many of the same assets, don't require as many sales to be successful, you flipped out then dropped that point entirely. Man, I'm done talking to yet another schizo.
>>
>>745165706
I believe their worst quarter was when XVI underperformed, but they've had strong gains since.
>>
>>745165706
Nope, they can make shit games and still turn a profit.
>>
>>745165723
>You're desperate to label DQ1 and 2 failures while refusing to accept their obvious part in the announced milestone.
I did acknowledge it.
It was likely somewhat over 500K and below a million, since DQ3 was more likely to cover 500K in the year it had not being charted in addition to existing digital sales.
