Japanese giant Square Enix has reported a 15.2 per cent dip in net sales for the three months ending June 2025. 

The company brought in Y59.3 billion ($402 million) for the period, though it says that this weaker performance is due to new titles not selling too well. Specifically, its digital entertainment business – aka games – managed net sales of Y32.9 billion ($223.6 million) for the period, a 25 per cent dip year-on-year. 

Net sales of HD games – aka console and PC – dipped 27.6 per cent for the period to Y8.9 billion ($60.4 million). Square Enix reported a massive increase in operating profit, which shot up to Y1 billion ($6.7 million), a 1,900 increase from last year's Y50 million (~$340,000) due to lower development cost amortisation.  

MMO net sales fell 23.2 per cent to Y9.6 billion ($65.2 million). 

Square Enix notes that the first quarter of its 2024 financial year saw several new games hit the market, such as the first three Kingdom Heart titles coming to Steam, which were reasonably popular. This year, however, it appears that the company doesn't have anything that can match those releases.
