Arceus ahead of ER physical is a surprise tbh.

I guess a big part of ER sales are digital since PS and Xbox digital shares grow every year and PC is basically digital only.

PC is the lead platform for Elden Ring in Europe.

GT7 and HFW did very well even without bundles.

Arceus ahead of ER physical is a surprise tbh.

44% were PC which is nearly 100% digital. PS/XB have a 40-50% digital ratio. ER digital is likely to be 65-70%+

Germany being so far ahead of UK and France too is surprising. I assume PC is making the difference there?

That's Germany+ Austria + Switzerland I believe but yeah PC market is big in the region.

DE should account for like 85-90% of those three regions.

good growth in spending for the Italian market imho!
good to see Arceus doing so strong performances over here, considering its "spin-off" (in terms of new approach to the series classic mechanics) nature

I'm not surprised about this

I have from the UK monthly charts (for software sales)
Jan - 2,290,000
Feb - 2,360,000
Mar - 2,770,000
Down 8% in terms of units YoY

Wonder if I am mis-assuming something or if the Average Price has just massively increased.

We did have a bigger share of new releases this Q1 (meaning higher ASP).

I had no idea that Italy was spending way less than France, UK or Germany(+AT/CH).

 

[Himura Kenshin]

I questioned Sony releasing two of its absolute killers in such close proximity as I would have liked to see them more spread out, but the games are different as night and day and you can't argue with results.

PLA is legit. It’s legs are beyond impressive as well. I can’t wait for its sales update, and what Pokémon S/V will bring to the table this fall.
