Final Fantasy 16

Famitsu’s latest weekly charts for the most highly anticipated upcoming games as voted by their readers are here, and things at the very top are rather predictable. Final Fantasy 16 has been topping these charts for a number of weeks running, and it’s comfortably held on to the top spot.

There’s plenty of movement in the other positions though. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s sequel has moved back up to second place, while Bayonetta 3 hangs on to No. 3, and Pokemon Legends: Arceus (which hadn’t yet launched when voting for these charts took place) moves up to No. 4. Splatoon 3, meanwhile, has fallen to fifth place.

Dragon Quest 10 Offline has also seen a bit of a drop, going from second place to No. 10, while Triangle Strategy has moved up to seventh place. Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak has broken into the top 10 at the tail end, while Ushiro and Gran Turismo 7 at No. 8 and No. 9 round out the charts.
