After four weeks on sale in Japan, Monster Hunter World on PS4 had sold 1,867,607 according to Famitsu.

In the same timeframe, Monster Hunter Wilds on PS5 has sold 763,490.

Granted, a portion of that will be due to the digital/physical split shifting towards the former since World, but that's a steep drop, especially as Japan favours physical more than some other markets. 

Also released day 1 on PC which World didn't so with that in mind PS5 actually doing pretty well. It's on track to sell around PS4 number even though it has had 2 or 3 price hikes and twice as expensive as the PS4 

I'm not so sure about that; when the PS4 was this age, in early 2018, it was selling around the 20-30k range, while PS5 looks like its settling back to a 10k baseline.
