Square Enix HD Games Lose Money but Final Fantasy XIV Dawntrail Saves the Day



Christopher23h ago

It should be noted that operating loss for HD titles includes 1 title that just released (30th October) and 2 titles that haven’t been released at all. So, they could at least eek through with a positive operating income by the end of the year. They’re including the operating costs for those games even though two haven’t been released and one has been out a whole week.

Having said that, man, they could do with some new IPs in there, IMHO.

MMOs are just money generating machines now, though. Mostly minor content creation, upkeep, no need for new graphics. Profit margins are likely always going to favor them than the slew of games they’re putting out (again, get some new IPs please?).
