As per usual, here’s an update on our previous list of the most wanted video game rankings from the beloved Japanese publication, Famitsu. Just like last time, the rankings collect votes for each game and how anticipated it is before putting them into order, thus determining fan demand within a focus group.

Kingdom Hearts 3 has managed to climb a rung on the ladder, now sitting at 4th place with Persona 5 on PS3 taking 5th.
