Guys all I know is that God of War and Call of Duty outsold Pokemon on this chart. And that is an excellent achievement. If it is true that bundles aren't included then it definitely outsold Pokemon even with digital sales. And that's okay.

I think Pokemon Scarlet and Violet sold more copies launch aligned. It was released a week later, and the rankings are revenue based (Pokemon is $10 cheaper than the PS5 version of Ragnarok).

Still... Scarlet/Violet (globally) had the greatest launch of all time for an exclusive game. For Ragnarok to rival that in the US, by selling primarily to PS5's small playerbase, is extremely impressive. Spider-Man 2 and Zelda Tears of the Kingdom will both gun for best US exclusive launch ever next year (excluding free mass bundles). Starfield might perform very well too when accounting for PC sales (Bethesda doesn't report digital).

PS5 is also gonna win December.
I am certain.

Maybe, but I wouldn't bet on it. If it does win December though, I half-expect it to have an impressive streak and win every month until November 2023 at the earliest, and Switch 2 launch at the latest. Though there may be some shipping issues around the time the revision is launched (September~) that could lead to a loss before that. Good chance Sony would prioritize other regions too, but I have a good feeling about production.
