The latest weekly Famitsu charts for the most highly anticipated upcoming games are in, as voted by readers of the Japanese magazine, and the top 5 is, surprisingly enough, exactly as it was last week, both in terms of the games, as well as where they’re placed. Super Smash Bros. Brawl is at the top of the charts, which makes sense, because by the time the voting for these charts ended, the game was just a little over a week away from release, and excitement surrounding it was sky high (as evidenced by its launch sales). You can probably expect it to retain that top spot for next week’s charts we well.
Meanwhile, Square Enix dominated the top 5 of the charts yet again. Kingdom Hearts 3 is in at second place, trailing Smash by 45 votes, and is followed closely by Final Fantasy 7 Remake in third place. Dragon Quest Builders 2, which is pretty close to its Japanese launch, is the third and final Square Enix game in the top 5, at fifth place. Resident Evil 2 at fourth place rounds out the top 5.
