Final Fantasy 16

It’s been a few weeks since Final Fantasy 16 climbed to the top of Famitsu’s weekly charts for the most highly anticipated upcoming games, as voted by their readers. The upcoming PS5 exclusive has remained on top for a number of weeks running at this point, and it does so once again, with Shin Megami Tensei 5 once again settling for second place.

Interestingly enough, Gran Turismo 7’s PS5 version at No. 10 is the only other non-Switch release in the top 10. Bayonetta 3 has climbed up two places and now sits at No. 3 with a comfortable lead over The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s sequel in fourth place, and Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl in fifth place.

Meanwhile, Splatoon 3 has also seen a bit of a boost, jumping up to No. 6. Metroid Dread, which hadn’t yet launched when voting for these charts took place, is at No. 7, followed by Ushiro at No. 8. Another Pokemon release, Pokemon Legends: Arceus, rounds out the charts.
