PlayStation Network continues to be the preferred source for great downloadable entertainment content for fans.
When FF VII first launched more than a decade ago on PS one, it broke sales records and brought RPGs to a whole new audience, and now the epic game has become a blockbuster all over again via the PlayStation Network. Users continue to show their loyalty to the PlayStation platform and critically-acclaimed franchise by making FF VII fastest selling PS one title on PlayStation Network since the game launched.
In just two weeks, Final Fantasy VII has been downloaded over 100,000 times, making it the No. 1 downloaded game for the week ending 6/17 on PlayStation Network in North America.
Final Fantasy VII is one of the dozens of classic PS one games that will be available between now and the end of the year on PlayStation®Store. Upcoming summer releases including, Wild Arms 2, Mobile Light Force and Spec Ops: Stealth Patrol. These titles will join the more than 40 PS one games currently available on PlayStationNetwork, including Metal Gear Solid and Street Fighter Alpha 2.
Thanks to the longevity, power and interoperability built into the PlayStation brand, most of these classics are playable on both the PS3 and PSP systems, giving gamers an unprecedented means to go back and relive their glory days of gaming, whether on the go or at home.
With 25 million registered users and more than 500 million pieces of content downloaded to date worldwide, PlayStation Network continues to be a popular destination for premium downloadable entertainment content. PlayStation Network currently offers a vast library of content to choose from, including 200 innovative games, demos, trailers and more.
