Final Fantasy XIII is the Fastest Selling Final Fantasy Ever

by | 03/20/2010

Despite some of the controversy over Final Fantasy XIII’s design, it has now become the fastest selling Final Fantasy title with over 1 million units shipped in North America in just five days.

The franchise total for Final Fantasy is now 96 million units. I wouldn’t be surprised if they break the 100 million unit mark once Final Fantasy XIII has finished pull in its numbers.

Aside from Final Fantasy XI and maybe Final Fantasy IX, I think every major numbered entry in the Final Fantasy series has broken the past benchmark, so I don’t think this is too much of a surprise.

Hooray! Money!
