A couple of weeks ago, Famitsu’s weekly charts for the most highly anticipated upcoming games saw some interesting movement when The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom took the No. 1 spot off of frequent chart-topper Final Fantasy 16. Last week saw the games switching positions, and that’s happened this week once more, with Zelda sitting on top and Final Fantasy following in second place. 

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet were No. 3 in last week’s charts, and so they are this week as well, while Dragon Quest Treasures and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth climb up to fourth and fifth place respectively. The PS4 version of Witch on the Holy Night follows behind in sixth place, with Fire Emblem Engage sitting at No. 7.

The PS5 version of Resident Evil 4’s remake has moved back into the top 10 at No. 8, while Sonic Frontiers, which hadn’t yet launched when voting for these charts took place, comes in at No. 9. Octopath Traveler 2 at No. 10 rounds out the charts.
