Edge_Maverick noticed that the transcript of Square Enix's financial call came out, so we have some information.
If it hits the upper end will depend on the tail end sales on Nintendo 3DS.
Keep in mind this call happened on August 4th.

On July 29, we released ”DRAGON QUEST XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age," which has generated a great customer response and garnered praise for its contents. We have seen stronger sales of the PlayStation®4 version than the NINTENDO 3DS version, but given the installed base, we have high hopes for growth in sales of the NINTENDO 3DS version going forward as well.

Also, you say that you are seeing strong sales of the PlayStation®4 version, which has a high sales price. Does that mean we can expect sales to beat your plan?
A: We believe that we can reach the lower end of our unit sales plan. Our goal is to reach the upper end of that plan, but we believe that that will depend on how sales of the NINTENDO 3DS version trend going forward.
