Coming very, very close to toppling Mario Kart was Spider-Man: Miles Morales on PS4 and PS5 (less than 200 sales separated the two). The Sony game enjoyed a 143% sales increase following the arrival of more PS5 consoles just before Christmas. Indeed, the arrival of more PS5 consoles has also caused a surge in sales for Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, which re-enters the charts at No.11.

And snapping at Spider-Man's heels is a brand new boxed release -- Among Us. The hit indie game from Innersloth received a physical release this week courtesy of Maximum Games. 39% of its sales were on Nintendo Switch, 24% on PS4, 20% on Xbox and 17% on PS5.

The new movie ( which was huge in terms of $$$) must have boosted the games sales. People are thirsty for more Spiderman.

It's Halo the flagship Xbox game people still want a hardcopy of Halo. Look at the chart Forza Horizon 5 is above it even though it's been out longer.

....but you have no problem pointing out the fact that this chart doesn't include digital data.
