Summer will always hurt game sales, there is a reason so many launch in oct, nov just before massive holiday all over the world, thats shopping season guaranteed.
Summer is travel season.
GOOD THING! This post is about the UK first two weeks of sales. No one gives a shit about your first week aggregate.
Let's see the lifetime sales first. You just saying decline like it sold a million copies. Ignoring factors that made ffxv have better launch. If wasn't for the fx13 hype it would let sales half of that. Also ff15 was over shipped . But I guess that doesn't count. Ffxvi is already more successful. Short dev time cheaper and sold 90% of the shipment at launch. So yeah. Let's see if damage the brand.
Game probably close to 4mil if not there already. Don't be daft. If a game that sold that much is in trouble. We might as well close the shop
I'm not sure what are you saying at all.Let's see the lifetime sales first. You just saying decline like it sold a million copies. Ignoring factors that made ffxv have better launch.

Lifetime sales won't change launch sales decline... it happened... it is past... and it is imutable... no matter how anybody wish or don't acept them it won't change.
If you want to discuss the reason why that happened I'm all opened for it but to deny in every thread is a bit weird and out of reality.
BTW FFXV shipped 5 million for launch in Nov 29... in early January it had shipped 6 million.... in middle Februarry it was at 7 millon shipped.
That is exactly the opposite of overshipped at launch.
Think a bit about... these claims doesn't make any sense.

This is nonsense. It happened? Like what the game stop selling? Is there a bargain bin I'm missing? Sold a million copies less than the other mainline while $10 more expensive
Over 200.000k in revenue first week if the average was 70 which isn't. Is a lot higher than that. Your concern is nonsense
I have no ideia what you are talking about.
What lifetime sales have to do with launch sales decline?
Selling copies at $10 is the same as full priced?
You even mistake concern with facts... there is no concern at all... there is facts.
I brought FFXVI at day one... did you? I'm not part of the decline no matter how you believe of my concern.
You are literally ignoring loads of facts
Like competition
Time frame
Install base
An anticipation
These are all facts
And considering that fxvi pretty much hurt the brand. Selling as much as it did is an accomplishment. These declining talk is nonsense. Declining means going down not going up.
In case these UK were the same in the rest of the world, in Steam it has 17367 reviews, which with the 'reviews x 25' estimation method Steam sales would be 434175, and if Steam is let's say 85% of PC sales then SF6 PC sales would be 510794 units.
And if sold that in PC and if PC are 23% of the sales then the total SF6 worlwide sales would be 2220843 so far (so let's say 2.2M). PS5 sales would be 52% (1.15M), PS4 would be 7% (155.5K) and Xbox Series would be 17% (377.5K).
So between PS sales would be 3.45 times the XBox ones.
P.S.: Take these numbers with a grain of salt, they are only very rough and weak estimations.

Wait where besides from Steam does it sell?
Also if I were to be Capcom, I would approch Sony and ask if they want to buy time-exclusive outright for like 20M per game.
so, 77,3% of sales was on PS platform. between PS and Xbox
I don't buy this, sorry. This is ant a regular game. It's a Tentpole game with fanbase and hype. I just don't PS5 is the software mover PS4 was unfortunately.
Still has no correlation to the UK sales data I'm talking about... So who is being daft here?
You are right. I was talking as a whole. Regardless selling 36% less than a classic isn't something to snot about. If you want to pretend 16 is on the same table as 7 go off
when FF7R was release, how many PS4 was on market? and how many when FF16 release? 36% is really nothing special. people clinging on it, it just over negative.
There is only 38 million ps5. Over 10% of ps5 owners bought ff16.
Also its not what you want to buy, games selling less during summer is a FACT:

The same people constantly talking about how much they dislike the game are the same people harping on about its sales numbers lol
