That's hugely impressive from SoT beating Ni No Kuni, specially considering its on game pass.

Nice one for SOT! I know my brother is playing it for free with the free trial of game pass.

Didn't SOT have a 3 day head start on AWO and NNK? Not sure why people are surprised honestly. If it's close to QB sales, that means all 3 didn't do well I guess

Wow. What a surprise especially considering the game is available for free on game pass.

SoT did impressively well, considering that here on VGC it was said that 90% of people playing the game were on Free Trial of Game Pass. XD

Damn that's not very high for Ni No Kuni 2, hopefully it will do better in other countries.

As I’ve said in another thread - everyone just assumed GamePass would be the major draw for SoT and that’s simply not true. While it’s a good for casuals, it’s not for early adopters or for people who want to own their games.

You really thought a niche JRPG could beat a high profile western developed game in the west?  Especially given the attention SoT has received on Twitch/Mixer?  Rare is a UK company and it sold well at home.  That’s to be applauded.  I’m actually surprised Nino debuted at 3.  Not many JRPGs do that.

Good to see SOT at the top of the charts.

I know it’s trendy to blindly hate on all things EA - but they have nothing to do with this indi’s game development.  Their role was funding and publishing on a pro bono level.
