Wada contradicted the article, saying Square Enix already receives more than 50% of total revenues from foreign markets, and not only 20% as the paper said. The company’s top man also said they are indeed focusing more on the foreign markets, because they acknowledge that the size of over-seas markets is continuously expanding. Square Enix has apparently come up with a 3 to 5 years plan to expand their foreign revenues from the current 50% to 75%. That means 3 out of 4 dollars will come from foreign affairs.
