Ghost of Yotei: Strong Opening Across Europe
Here’s a summary of the key facts from the provided text, focusing on video game sales and chart performance:
* Ghost of Yotei (PS5) Debut: Launched at No. 2 in the GSD European charts, with sales comparable to Ghost of Tsushima (PS4, 2020). It’s the biggest first-party PlayStation launch as Spider-Man 2 (October 2023).
* EA Sports FC 24 Remains at No.1: Held the top spot for a third week, but sales are down 62% week-over-week.
* Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Switch) at No. 3: A relatively soft launch for a Mario title, selling about a quarter of what Super Mario 3D All-Stars did in 2020. Digital sales through the eShop are likely higher, and the first Galaxy game was previously available in 3D All-Stars.
* Other New Releases: Digimon story: Time Stranger at No. 4 and Final Fantasy Tactics: The ivalice Chronicles at No. 10.
* Steam Autumn Sale Impact: The Top Ten includes several games benefiting from notable discounts in the Steam Autumn sale (Doom eternal, Far Cry Primal, South Park: The Fractured But Whole).
* Sales vs. Revenue: Silent Hill F and Sonic Racing CrossWorlds have fallen out of the Top 20 in unit sales but remain in the Top 11 in revenue, suggesting higher price points.
