- Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is crushing the competition on Steam.
- The JRPG is currently outselling every premium and free-to-play title, including Marvel Rivals.
- Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade has also joined the top 10 best-sellers list ahead of today’s release.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth was announced for PC not too long ago, creating anticipation for Square Enix’s latest JRPG on the platform. One month later, the title is nearly here, and thousands of fans are ready to pick up where they left off with the first remake.
The title is also showing potential in terms of commercial performance, becoming Steam’s top-selling game ahead of the release.
Why it matters: Final Fantasy 16, the last major PC release for this series, failed to live up to its potential on the platform.
Looking at Steam, the game sits at the very top of the best-sellers list, beating out various premium and free-to-play titles.
The JRPG is even beating the Steam Deck and the massively popular Marvel Rivals. Reviews for the PC version were also released yesterday, receiving praise similar to the original PS5 version.
These reviews may have been one of the many reasons the title is doing so well on Steam for the time being. The system requirements aren’t too demanding either, opening the game up to a wider audience than last year’s Final Fantasy 16.
Interestingly, Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade is also found quite high on the best-sellers list. Currently sitting within the top 10, this title seems to have received a boost from Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s buzz, suggesting that many newcomers are picking up both JRPGs at the same time.
In any case, Square Enix will be glad to see the game’s current progress. Major success for the PC launch would help the publisher bounce back from shaky financial results last year and might even pave the path for a PC port at release for the final entry in this trilogy.
