Famitsu has released its charts for the most highly anticipated upcoming video game releases, and like last week (and many, many weeks before that), Final Fantasy 7 Remake is on top of the charts. The RPG got nearly twice as many votes as the game placed second, which is Nintendo Switch exclusive Animal Crossing: New Horizons (which has also been hanging on to the second spot for a while now).
Meanwhile, there’s a change in third place, with Resident Evil 3 climbing up from last week, swapping places with Tales of Arise, which drops down to No. 4. Nioh 2 and Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers remain unmoved at No. 5 and No. 6, as do Bayonetta 3 and the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild at No. 7 and No. 8. Meanwhile, Rune Factory 5 at No. 9 is a new entry in the charts, while Cyberpunk 2077 re-enters the top 10 at the charts’ tail end.
