You can tell it’s the quiet summer months of the year when trying to find something interesting to talk about in the latest NPD software results is like drawing blood from a stone. The chart has settled to a point where the usual Nintendo titles are on top alongside service games that always do well, meaning the games for enthusiasts slip down the list. The most notable of which are the PlayStation 5, PS4 exclusives of the past year.
During its launch month, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart debuted in first place. It’s down in 11th for July 2024, while MLB The Show 21 drops to seventh. Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales is the only exclusive title that holds firm in the overall chart of best-selling software, actually going up a rank into eighth. New entry The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD leads the pack in first, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War once again claims second, and another new entry in Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin takes the bronze medal.
At least Sony titles fare much better when you narrow the chart down to purely PS5, PS4, software. In the top 10 selling games of July 2024 for PlayStation hardware, three of the top five selling titles are all published by Sony. Activision’s latest FPS still leads the pack, but the three aforementioned Sony games all place in second, third, and fourth. In actual fact, baseball sim MLB The Show 21 has already become the second best-selling game of 2024. There’s something to shout about, at least.
