This is evidenced by the updated statistics on sales in the US market in dollar terms for the last year, published today by the rating agency NPD.
Below is a list of the highest grossing games in the United States for the last calendar year – from April 2023 to the end of March 2023.…
It is composed as follows: NPD counts game sales in pieces (both discs and digital copies in the PS Store are taken into account for Sony consoles), and then multiplies the result by the official price of each game in dollars. Based on the resulting sales revenue data, a rating of the highest-grossing releases is compiled.
The list shows that Spider-Man: Miles Morales, which came out a few months after The Last of Us Part II and cost less from day one, is already beating Naughty Dog’s brainchild. Insomniac Games’ new project is also ahead of Ghost of tsushimabut this is a brand new IP.
At the start of The Last of Us Part II set the all-time fastest selling record in the history of the PlayStation brand, selling over 4 million copies in three days… Since then, Sony has not shared with the public the updated official statistics.
In addition to Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Sony has released a role-playing game for the start of the PlayStation 5 Demon’s Souls and platformer Sackboy: A Big Adventure… They are now off the charts, while Spider continues to sell well.
