Video game remakes digital sales worldwide 2020
As the video game industry becomes more established, older gamers have started to yearn for the nostalgia of the games from their childhood. This has led to an increase of game remakes of titles originally released in the 1990s or 2000s. Final Fantasy VII was originally released in 1997 for the original PlayStation console and it was remade for the PlayStation 4 in 2020. First month digital sales of this remake amounted to 2.2 million units worldwide in April 2020.
