The double-version collection of "Final Fantasy 7 Remake" (including "Remake" and "Rebirth") also climbed from 265 to 16, achieving a strong rebound.
The PS5 version of "Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth" failed to meet SE's commercial expectations due to its exclusive host strategy, but it broke the situation after the release of the PC version. Analysts pointed out that cross-platform strategies and PC players' high stickiness to Japanese RPGs have become the key driving force. In addition, there is a rumor in the industry that "Rebirth" may be launched on Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2 within the year to further expand user coverage. The success of SE's "phase-by-platform release" strategy may provide an important reference for the multi-platform layout of the subsequent works of the "Final Fantasy" series.
