Final Fantasy maker Square Enix says that its Q2 operating income has dropped 79% year on year, despite the launch of Final Fantasy 16. As we await the arrival of the FFXIV Dawntrail release date and the next big expansion for the MMORPG, Square Enix says that, despite an increase in overall game sales, development costs and payments have caused a sharp downturn in income. In light of the newly published financials, the Final Fantasy 14 creator has also seen its share price decline by 12%.
