Square Enix’s Big Reset Is Working As It Increases Its Full-Year Forecast

Square Enix reported higher sales and operating income for the six months to 30 September 2026, saying its business reset is delivering results. The stronger performance led it to raise its full-year forecasts, with sales of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on Switch 2 and Xbox Series X|S among the factors cited.

Net sales reached ¥163,179 million, up 21.9% year on year, while operating income rose 41.3% to ¥38,793 million. The company now expects full-year net sales of ¥310,000 million, up from ¥298,000 million, and operating income of ¥59,000 million, up from ¥49,000 million; digital sales accounted for just over 89% of entertainment sales across all regions.
