Charts Japan: Gran Turismo 7 holds the road, Triangle Strategy too

Here are the best sellers of games and consoles in Japan for the week of February 28 to March 4, 2022, established and communicated as always by the magazine famitsu.

In the stride of Horizon Forbidden West and Elden Ring, the Japanese ranking finally recovers to live thanks to the launches of two other notable outings. Starting with Gran Turismo 7, last born of a franchise that has also experienced its hours of glory in Japan, especially the first episode whose fuel has caused it to be rolled up to the 2 million sales in the archipelago. With 138,000 copies sold, including the majority on PS5 (a great first in Japan), Gran Turismo 7 performs a similar launch than Gran Turismo Sport in 2017, but the advantage should turn in favor of the first named through a dematerialization. more pronounced. If we stay away away from the record boot of UNGRAN Turismo 2 (750,000 sales), the launch of Gran Turismo 7 seems able to equal or exceed that of Gran Turismo 6 in 2013 (188,000 sales).

At the risk of surprising no one, the other big launch of the week is not for Babylon's Fall but for Triangle Strategy with 86,298 sold cartridges. An admirable performance for a tactical RPG lined with a new license, not far from the 93,000 sales of a game like Bravely Default II that Square Enix launched a year earlier on the same platform. At the same time, Elden Ring clings comfortably for his second week on the market and can target the 400,000 sales within a week or two. By adding other platforms and download, fromSoftware has in the hands of the biggest success in its history, which we are talking about Japan or the rest of the world.

Thanks to a great new week, the switch crosses the bar of 24 million consoles sold in Japan and approximates the 24.5 million Nintendo 3DS, which implies an entry shortly on the large podium alongside the Nintendo DS and Game Boy. With 32 million consoles each sold, these will remain quiet for a while. Good week also for the PlayStation 5 (more than 25,000 sales) whose trajectory remains for the moment similar to the sales of the PS4 in its time.

Ellie Kills Riley in The Last of Us - HBO Series Finale

The television program The Last of Us is in its last episodes, and HBO is not retaining anything. Until now, the program has expanded in multiple different notes of history in recent weeks, and this week was no different. Anyone who has played the DLC Left Behind knew he was approaching, but did not make it easier. As we mentioned in the other guide we publish about this week's episode, Storm Reid is a dead point for Riley and is based practically on all the senses with respect to his relationship with Ellie, even until he reaches his damn affliction shared. Then, let's answer the question if Ellie ends up killing Riley. Did Ellie killed Riley at The Last of Us from HBO? While it was apparently a lost opportunity, we don't really see the consequences of the respective bites of Riley and Ellie in episode 7 called Left Behind. But with a TDI this, most likely the answer is yes, Ellie kills Riley. How is a different question, although with a weapon it is probably a v...
