Square Enix are rolling it in once again, the publisher has confirmed.

The latest set of financials from Squeenix indicate that the company has made 6,060 million yen ($75.75 million) in the past financial year. Considering the publisher reported a heavy net loss of 12,043 million yen or roughly $150 million in the previous year, that’s a pretty significant turnaround.

Yoichi Wada, President of Square Enix, attributed the high level of profit to sales of titles such as Deus Ex Human Revolution and Final Fantasy XIII-2. The company also saw strong growth from its line of browser games and smartphone titles – Sengoku Ixa and Final Fantasy Brigade being the two most noteworthy performers.

    Having endured those Deus Ex bosses I think they should redistribute some of that as compensation…:-)

    Is there quite a bit of DLC for Deus Ex? If so, have they released a special/complete edition of the title with it?

    Enjoying both games and I’m not surprised they helped turn a profit for SE.
    Also interested to know if these are the figures published by SE and nobody has bothered to convert them into £ for those of us that don’t have a clue what the exchange rate is!
