On a related note, Sonic Frontiers seems to be selling better so far than any previous 3D Sonic. It made #3 on Steam first week, and is the 2nd biggest 3D platformer ever on Steam ranked by concurrent players. On Amazon US it is currently at #11 Switch (only behind Pokemon Scarlet and Violet software wise) and #16 PS5. On Gamestop's US website, it is at #10 on Switch, #14 on PS5, and #27 on Xbox. On Xbox US digital bestsellers it is up to #8 now while still missing the first full week of sales data (only 5 days instead of 7), only behind 2 different CoD MW2 editions, Madden 23 (half off this week), GTA V (was on sale earlier this week), FIFA 23 (on sale for 10% off this week), DBZ Xenoverse 2 (on sale for $9 this week), and NBA 2K23.
US wise at least it seems to be shaping up to make NPD top 10 in it's release month, something that the previous bestselling 3D Sonic, Sonic Generations, was unable to do in November 2011, though alot depends on rather or not Sonic Frontiers gets a Black Friday discount.
