Just like last week (and many, many weeks before that), Final Fantasy 7 Remake has topped Famitsu’s weekly charts for the most highly anticipated upcoming video games, as voted by their readers. The RPG – which was recently delayed by a little over a month, has more than twice as many votes as the game placed second, Tales of Arise.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons, too, remains unmoved in third place, while Yakuza: Like a Dragon at No. 4 and Nioh 2 at No. 5 have swapped places from last week. Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers and the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild have both jumped up a couple of places, at sixth and seventh respectively, while Bayonetta 3 gets pushed down to No. 8. Cyberpunk 2077 and Trials of Mana both get pushed out of the top 10, making way for Resident Evil 3 and Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot at No. 9 and No. 10.
