That's right, Square-Enix has proven that Final Fantasy is recession proof. Opening day sales have ranked up to 100,000 copies worldwide. Of course, this does include all of the imports from people looking to pop the FFXIII demo disc into their PS3. The blu-ray version of Final Fantasy VII Advent Children has sold more than three times any other anime released on blu-ray.
The movie itself features both Japanese and English audio tracks. With the Final Fantasy XIII trial having a heavy contribution in these figures, the demo only features a Japanese language and subtitle track.
When the blu-ray hits North American shores on June 2nd, it will be interesting to see how sales compare against it's Japanese counterpart that included a trial to the most anticipated RPG of all time. Stay tuned to see where this goes.
