Newsflash — splatoon 3 is still inking all over the charts in Japan (and everywhere, wirklich!). Following last week’s bumper sales, this week’s Famitsu Japanese charts reveal that, despite an expected drop in sales, the third mollusc-based shooter has still managed to shift an incredible 506,610 physical units. That means physical sales for Splatoon 3 are already almost at 2.5 Millionen Kopien.

The other big news is Drachenquest X: Aufstieg der fünf Stämme offlineChampions Of The Continent Early Access geht auf Android live. This offline version of the Japan-exclusive MMORPG has sold nearly three times as many copies on Switch as it has on PlayStation 4 oder 5 — but all three releases make up three of the top-five selling games of the week. Dragon Quest is a big deal in Japan, so we’re not that surprised at all, but we did have to smile when we saw positions 2, 3, und 4 were all Dragon Quest. Only inklings and octolings can keep the dragon at bay, es scheint!

The other new Japanese release this week is Trinity-Trigger, FuRyu’s co-op action RPG which is due out in the West early next year. The game debuted in 7th with 6,698 Einheiten verkauft, which isn’t too bad for a brand new IP. But other than the two other Dragon Quest X versions, it’s a Switch-dominated list!
