Tales of Arise

Famitsu has released its latest weekly charts for the most highly anticipated upcoming games, as decided by votes from its readers, and the results are rather predictable. Bandai Namco’s and Square Enix’s respective action RPGs Tales of Arise and Final Fantasy 16 have been dominating these charts for some time now, and the two are in the top two positions this week once again.

In third place is The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s unnamed sequel, trailing the leaders by over a hundred votes, while fellow elusive upcoming Switch exclusive Bayonetta 3 is in fourth place. Yet another Zelda game – Skyward Sword HD – is in at No.10. In fact, with the exception of PS5’s Gran Turismo 7 in ninth place, all other games in the top 10 are Switch exclusives.

The likes of Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, Shin Megami Tensei 5, and Splatoon 3 all figure into the top 10 as well.
