As expected, it dominated US August sales. Madden NFL 23 from EA Sports. American football was accompanied by crazy action in the open world saints row, which isn’t bad at all considering the game went on sale just three days before NPD Group’s data close. Still, the game should not be on Madden. Madden is already the fifth best-selling game in the US this year.
Action Adventure ranked third Spiderman Marvel, which was in 84th place in July. Then he dropped from second to fourth ancient ring. Bandai Namco and FromSoftware should not be sad, the hardcore RPG continues to be the best selling game of 2022 in the US. The second is LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, the third is Pokémon Legends: Arceus (excluding digital sales) and Horizon: Forbidden West.
The consoles performed well overall. There are more devices on the market and the PlayStation 5 is the best in terms of units sold and revenue.. Nintendo Switch has to settle for second place in terms of units sold, while Xbox Series X/S is second in terms of dollars. Both next-gen consoles saw double-digit percentage growth compared to August 2021. This is the second consecutive month of such growth.
The Switch has the most units sold since the beginning of the year, and the PS5 is number one in sales.
Despite interest in the aforementioned games and hardware, total spending fell five percent year-over-year in August from $4.31 billion to $4.10 billion. Video game content spending fell six percent from $3.81 billion to $3.59 billion, while video game hardware sales rose 14 percent from $329 million to $375 million. But it’s still better than spending in August 2020.
