News Japan Sales Charts: PS5 Finally Hits 6 Million, Gundam Breaker 4 and Visions of Mana Make Top 10

[admin]

​

It's been a long time coming, but the PS5 has finally topped six million sales in Japan. The current-gen console's been heading towards that milestone for months, but a lack of notable system sellers has meant slow progress. Still, it's something for Sony to celebrate in its native country. For reference, the PS4 has sold around 9 million units in Japan since its launch in the region, over ten years ago.

Meanwhile, a handful of PlayStation games have shown up in the software charts — which makes a nice change! Gundam Breaker 4 took third place on PS5, with Visions of Mana just behind it. The PS4 versions of both titles made the top ten as well.

Also, Star Wars Outlaws ducked into eighth, with just over 10,000 copies sold. Far from blockbuster numbers, but as always, it's worth reiterating that these Famitsu charts do not count digital sales.
