Final Fantasy XIII Fastest Selling Title In The History Of Final Fantasy

Square Enix is glowing all sorts of colors, just like Squall does when he casts Aura, when it comes to Final Fantasy XIII’s sales in North America.

Over one million units of Final Fantasy XIII were sold in the first five days after its March 9 launch. That figure makes Final Fantasy XIII the fastest selling Final Fantasy game ever. Final Fantasy XIII is also the first at-launch multiplatform Final Fantasy game, appearing on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in the West.

To date, five million copies of Final Fantasy XIII have been shipped (not sold) worldwide, which brings the Final Fantasy franchise up to 96 million shipped games.
