  Final Fantasy XVI reached an important milestone in just a few days since its launch, a milestone that also makes it the fastest-selling PlayStation 5 exclusive to date.

  Today, Square Enix confirmed the latest entry in the series sold a total of 3 million copies worldwide. As reported by Zuby_Tech on Twitter, this makes the game the fastest-selling PlayStation 5 exclusive to date, as God of War Ragnarok did sell 5.1 million at launch, but it was also released on PlayStation 4 as well as on PlayStation 5.

  The success Final Fantasy XVI is enjoying on the market is well-deserved, as it is an excellent game that both veterans and newcomers can enjoy. The role-playing game mechanics, however, do hold the game back a bit, as they are kind of superfluous, as Kai highlighted in his review.

  Final Fantasy XVI heralds in a new standard for Japanese role-playing games and while the RPG components themselves are limited by Square-Enix standards, it's the narrative and gameplay that exceed all expectations. What begins with kingdom-wide subterfuge and destruction ends with a world forever changed and the player, as Clive Rosfield and Ifrit together, are the driving force to see it all through until the end.

  Final Fantasy XVI is now available on PlayStation 5 worldwide. The game is coming to PC in the future, although a release window has yet to be confirmed.
