Square Enix has announced that they have sold over 5.5 million units worldwide of Final Fantasy XIII, all this in the fiscal year ending March 31st 2010. That’s an outstanding figure, and many would expect no less from a Final Fantasy title. Even with being heavily criticized for the scaled back features compared to old games in the series, the game managed to gain a huge momentum. The RPG went on sale in Japan first just before Christmas last year, selling 1.85 million units. A full breakdown of their top selling titles for the fiscal year is below.
* Final Fantasy XIII – 5.55 million units
* Dragon Quest IX – 4.26 million units (Japan alone)
* Batman: Arkham Asylum – 3.24 million units
