NPD May 2017 Report: Injustice 2 On Top in US, Prey in Fifth

Software sales remain same over same period last year.

Posted By | On 20th, Jun. 2017

The NPD Group submitted its report on console and software sales in the United States for May 2017. Unsurprisingly in the game sales department, NetherRealm’s Injustice 2 managed to emerge as the top selling game across all platforms.

It was followed by Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Grand Theft Auto 5 and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Sadly, Arkane Studios’ Prey lagged behind in fifth place, though digital sales haven’t exactly been taken into account.

Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands was in sixth followed another new entry Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia in seventh. NBA 2K17, MLB 17: The Show and Overwatch rounded out the top 10 of the charts.

The report also noted that while portable spending on software was up by 10 percent year-on-year, overall software sales compared to last year remain the same with no growth. What are your thoughts on May 2017’s biggest games? Let us know in the comments below.
