Famitsu has released its latest weekly charts for the most highly anticipated upcoming games, and though the top 10 hasn’t seen too many changes from last week, there has still been some shuffling around of positions. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, which has been topping charts for a couple of weeks, has dropped down to second place, with Final Fantasy 16 climbing back into the top spot.

Meanwhile, fellow FF title Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is also in the top 10, retaining its place in the sixth spot. In third place is Dragon Quest Treasures, which hadn’t yet launched when voting for the charts took place, followed by Fire Emblem Engage and Pikmin 4 in fourth and fifth place respectively.

Pragmata has dropped out of the top 10 once again, though fellow Capcom titles Resident Evil 4 and Street Fighter 6 are still in the charts, coming in at No. 7 and No. 10 respectively. Ushiro climbs back into the charts at No. 9, with Octopath Traveler 2 rounding things off in eighth place.
