FFXIV Financial Report Decline

Square Enix Q1 2025 financial report shows a really sharp decline in particularly the MMO division with FFXIV YoY after the launch of Dawntrail. MMO gross sales decreased by ¥2.9 billion yen (-23%) and operational profits are down ¥3 billion (-45%) Square Enix shareholder Yuzu writes that something must be done for FFXIV to regain its popularity and user base as it is an important pillar to the company’s HD game sales. He writes that the current increase in stock prices due to the activist funding is inflated and not an accurate reflection of company health.

The joke is the dramatic presentation of FFXIV’s financial decline and the call to restore its popularity, making it suitable for reactions about a game or company supposedly falling off.
