MLB The Show stays a best seller year after year. My god.
Just glancing and having no real insight, it doesn't look like sales really increased after going multi platform? It always launching on Game Pass doesn't help but still.
Wonder if Sony will ever put it on PC.
Right, I was puzzled by the talk about february.I think Mat meant to say hardware fell in March as this is the March period not February.
I love that Elden Ring is basically the new Skyrim. Two years since release and it still keeps selling and selling and selling. Especially given the Expansion coming out in just over a month, I'm curious how long it'll stay in the charts!

Dragon's Dogma 2 selling more than Rebirth YTD is not something I ever had on my bingo card.
Indeed.
Yeah, it's doing just fine, but it should be better. I think this just really highlights that Final Fantasy needs to expand its platform presence. FFVII Rebirth should have released on PS5 and PC simultaneously at launch.For all the doom and gloom, I expected Rebirth to do a lot worse...
Granted I wish it'd do better, but 7th isn't the end of the world.
Probably behind Remake.HD2 is crazy lol.
DD2 seems to be doing well, probably quite close to Rebirth. Ronin doing not bad.
Rebirth doing pretty decent for a sequel of a remake, hopefully it'll continue selling more once it's out on PC.
Wonder where FF16 is on the ranking currently. Can't really compare with the top 3 as they're lifetime sales.

So yeah, safe to say that DD2 was a hit. Hell, Capcom even said as much. Itsuno pretty much has a free license to do whatever he wants at this point.Dragon's Dogma 2 selling more than Rebirth YTD is not something I'd ever envisioning putting on my bingo card.
Yeah, agree its too many variables.Digital MLB sales on Xbox & Switch aren't included so we don't really know. But I imagine GP on Xbox accounts for the majority of that player-base, which is another factor muddying sales charts as they don't include "deal" revenue if looking purely on an ROI basis i.e., any games on GP/PS+ etc.
I was actually expecting DD2 to explode and do Elden Ring numbers based on the previews. Unfortunate that the reviews and release wasn't smooth sailing.Dragon's Dogma 2 selling more than Rebirth YTD is not something I'd ever envisioning putting on my bingo card.

Still, it's nice to see it all being a big seller on PlayStation after going multi platform. Makes the madness surrounding that news even more hilarious in hindsight, lol
Maybe next time they can make a game with actual ideas beyond "how can we annoy the player as much as possible and waste huge amounts of their time with repetition and bland combat encounters?"
DD2 is literally the most disappointed I've been in a big sequel to a video game in like a decade. Shocking how little the game has grown since the original.
Mat also clarified that the dual Pack for remake isn't included into that dollar amount for rebirth
A shame that Peach Showtime didn't really take off, she deserves better.
EDIT: Almost forgot that it's only physical for Peach, paints a better picture for her than I originally feared.
It'll definitely make for an interesting YTD sales battle between it and Rebirth, at least. The WOM on DD2 isn't nearly as glowing as you might have expected, so putting that up against a game battling lack of interest makes for some intrigue. Not a terribly important thing, but some fun can be had there.I was actually expecting DD2 to explode and do Elden Ring numbers based on the previews.
