Man of MedanSupermassive Games’ new horror adventure title, debuts in third place. Meanwhile, Remedy Entertainment’s Control takes the fourth spot in its debut week. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, which topped sales charts last week, has dropped down to fifth place, followed by consistently well-performing titles such as Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled and Super Mario Maker 2.
