Japanese Charts: Shin Megami Tensei V Drops As Elden Ring DLC Bundle Takes The Throne
Famitsu is back with the latest look at the Japanese charts and last week’s champion, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance has dropped to second thanks to the arrival of a new DLC-packed edition of Elden Ring.
Yes, the new Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Edition on PS5 has taken the gold this time, putting up 24,012 sales on the console in its debut week (and the PS4 version has slipped in at fourth). Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door fall into second and third and there are a couple of newbies at seven and ten as Radiant Silvergun and Spirit Hunter Series Complete Collection make their Japanese debut.
Here’s your look at this week’s top ten in full:
Despite PlayStation’s Elden Ring-boosted dominance on the software side of things, this week’s hardware chart has very few surprises. The Switch OLED comes out with another commanding lead, shifting another 26,476 units compared to Sony’s PS5 on 19,661.
Combining the SKUs for Switch and PS5 paints a similar picture dominated by Nintendo. The standard Switch, OLED and Lite combine for 38,205 sales, while the two PS5 models total 22,857.
