I assume that Hogwarts Legacy sold through all of its stock. This isn't gonna last but damn it's impressive how close the PS5 is to the Switch now YTD. At this rate it's gonna do over 2m this year and surpass the PS4's peak year. I think it's now ahead of the PS4 launch aligned though should fall behind again later. Switch is about 35% down so far so as expected a big drop is gonna happen here but it's still doing well.

I hear that people in Japan were unable to find physical copies of Hogwarts, so possibly. And the digital version probably sold more.

93k again for PS5 is nice to see. Not sure what the baseline will fall to once stock becomes normal (if they do) but definitely an indication of how many people wanted a PS5 in Japan but coyuldn't get one until now.

Yep, stock has held it back a lot till now. With FF16 not far off this surge of sales couldn't have come any later really.
