August Circana: PS 5 was the best-selling hardware platform in both unit and dollar sales during Aug, Xbox dbl digits down trailing second.

Really sad to see that FFXVI might not end up in the top 20 best selling games of the year in the US.
Worst possible release date does that to someone. Heatwave throughout the western world, releasing just after Diablo 4. I honestly think the release date is something that had a huge influence on the sales.

Hey but you know ffxvi

Well yeah that’s the point. FF16 is only one spot above it….

SF6 sales are pretty concerning tbh. Not the first time fighters died…

(Ps all the new sf characters and their designs are terrible)

Sf6 sales are fine. These games don't sale like crazy. If we past the comparison the game dud great.

After seeing this, I think Xbox won't have a special sales push or GP push on September due to Starfield. I think most people interested to get it already had GP or Xbox (or a PC).

You guys have to understand that most games that perform great or ok don't appear in these sales rankings. SFV is the best selling Capcom fighting game project ever, and Capcom's top 10 best selling game ever.

And SF6 had a way better launch in sales that SFV. SF6 is doing great.

They’re terrible … no growth from sfv with a full multi platform release. Honestly… it’s a fail.

Hope that PS5 will outsell XS in September because Starfield and its hype. That would quite a moment. Just like it was when PS4 outsold Xbone during Titanfall launch and all that mega hype ( Xbone bundle was even discounted to 450$ back then )
