A slow start. Famitsu has published the latest boxed charts for Japan, and we’ve got a few newcomers this week to mix up the top ten. In pole position is Silent Hill f for the PS5, which starts strong with 57,475 units sold. Not too far behind, however, is Mario Kart World, adding another 35,027…
It’s time to see which PS5, PS4, PS VR2, and free-to-play games topped last month’s download charts. September saw sports rise to the top again as NBA 2K26 led the league in the US, while EA Sports FC 26 took charge in the EU charts for PS5, with Borderlands 4 and Hollow Knight: Silksong also…

Which isn’t very impressive, the observant among you may note, and feels all the more unremarkable now people are out here 100% beating Hollow Knight: Silksong on a saxophone.
