Thanks to GameDataLibrary we have the Top 10 PS5 Titles since launch up until September, below is the situation when we add Tales of Arise & Lost Judgement.

PS5 Top 10 Games Famitsu

1. Resident Evil: Village (Capcom) - 67.210
2. Miles Morales (Sony) - 60.772
3. Tales of Arise (Bandai Namco) - 60.106 
4. Demon Souls (Sony) - 58.611
5. Lost Judgement (Sega) – 33.151
6. FFVII Remake Integrade (Square Enix) - 30.984
7. Judgement Remastered (Sega) - 26.292
8. R&C Rift Apart (Sony) - 24.385
9. CoD:BO Cold War (Sony) - 20.995
10. Ghost of Tsushima DC (Sony) - 19.309

TOTAL: 401.815

A week ago Gibson also tweeted that total sales on the PS5 have only surpassed 500K, so outside of the Top 10 the rest of the games are just above 100K combined 

Since the PS5 launched in Japan, it has sold 1.05m, Xbox S/X 92k and Switch 5.2m.BUT software is 0.5m PS5, 1700 Xbox S/X and 20.4m Switch. This is ex-digital which is a much bigger deal for PS5/Xbox but still says attach rate for PS5 is low (1x-2x) v. Switch (4x +) in the period!

Great work, man. 

The Ps5 situation is complex

Sony laser focus on West( moving for California)

Sony reduces japan presence ( Japan Studio )

Sony and Microsoft invest more and service and less on-sell games ( the impact we will see in this gen)  

The chip shortage.
