OP
OP
This is May's results, Days of Play was mainly in June no?
Edit: Yeah, May 29 until June 12.
Just finished GoT last week (currently working on the DLC).
Love this game and love seeing it at #1!

I know it only had a couple days, but I thought F1 24 would be a bit higher than that. I guess I figured it was a more popular franchise.
PC Version of GoT made me fan of the game after dropping it on PS4. Fantastic port, well deserved. Nixxes is lowkey one of Sony's most valuable studios, especially in the current climate of long AAA dev times.
Also impressed by Fallout 4's performance going on 3 months after the initial resurgence from the show.

With accessory spending down 8% YOY for May, gamepad spending down 12%, and with the Portal having a $199.99 SRP, I don't know if the unit sales of them are terribly high. But still, it does show that there's somewhat of a niche market out there for the device, at least in the U.S. We haven't really seen it gain traction in other countries where it had been tracked.
I wonder why people wait 5, 6, 8 months to buy the latest COD? Just buy it in the first two months it comes out?
He writes "remains", so it sounds more like it was already public info, no?
CoD games (along with Minecraft, GTA, and others) are very commonly bought with new consoles, which pushes them into the top 10 a lot. You also have to keep in mind that the average gamer only buys a few new games per year and may not have the money/hype to always grab the latest CoD at launch.
I'm so happy for GoT. One of my favorite games of all time. Glad PC players got to experience the game.
Probably a combination of sales/upgrading to a new console and wanting to buy something alongside it.
Kinda similar to how Mario Kart 8 continually stays in top 20 due to new players purchasing a Switch and overwhelming picking MK8 as their first purchase.
Mortal Kombat 1 is still in the top 20! Tekken 8 out of it?!
Mat said last week that it even was #19 in engagement on PlayStation, beating Helldivers 2.
There's this discourse about the game doing bad and been dead because of ...Steam and Social posts, but the game/series is just huge on consoles.

I was looking at Ghost thinking "why?" I forgot about the PC release. I thought people were still mad at Sony for the PSN login stuff?
Rebirth hanging on despite still underperforming is quite something. More heavy hitters like sports games are still coming though so I expect it to drop out of the top 10 by October.
Also seems crazy that it is #1 on steam monthly active users and not even top 10 PS monthly active users.
Like a lot of things these days there is often a very loud minority that screams far louder than the general masses.
Can't believe you have people like Paul Tassi writing stuff about how Helldivers 2 is dead when it's still in the top 5 sellers and top 5 most played on Steam week after week.
That first 43 months on the market tweet is...something.
PS5 being ahead of PS4, who woulda thought...
Hell, it's the same price as the edge which used to get posted alot in these results.

Okay, vasts majority of the results in the op are dollar sales.

Here's to you, FF7 Rebirth. I don't think we're going to see you in the top 5 YTD much longer, so it's been an honor you beautiful bastard.
