Seems like a lot of RPG fans in the United Kingdom were anticipating their return to the world of Ivalice, as Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age for PS4 has taken the crown as the best selling game of the week in the country. The remastered edition of the classic PS2 game represents Square Enix’s first chart-topper since last year’s Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. Final Fantasy XV had to settle for second place in its debut, as the launch coincided with the recent release of FIFA 17.
The news round up a fantastic launch for the game, which critics have been praising for its gameplay additions that improve the original formula. On our own review we described The Zodiac Age as “the shining example of how remasters should be — improving the game in multiple aspects while keeping the core gameplay intact.”
For the first time since its release, there are no Nintendo Switch games inside the UK top 10, although this will most definitely change with the upcoming launch of Splatoon 2.
