Final Fantasy 16 is Still on Top of Famitsu’s Most Wanted Charts

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. Final Fantasy 16, which topped last week’s charts (and a couple more weeks before that) remains on top, maintaining a pretty healthy lead over Shin Megami Tensei 5, which is in second place once again.

Meanwhile, Pokemon Brillant Diamond and Shining Pearl, too, are still in third place. In fact, the only change from last week’s top 5 is The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s sequel at No. 4 and Bayonetta 3 at No. 5 switching their positions.

After that, Super Robot Wars 30 has leapfrogged a few games to jump up to No. 6, pushing down Metroid Dread (which hadn’t yet launched when voting took place) to No. 7 and Pokemon Legends: Arceus to No. 8, while Splatoon 3 and Ushiro enter the charts at No. 9 and No. 10 respectively.
