NPD Group has shared the official sales data for the month of September 2018 in the United States and, as foreseeable, Marvel’s Spider-Man was the best selling game on PlayStation 4 and overall.
NBA 2K19 and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey were respectively second and third overall, with FIFA 19 fourth most probably since it’s been out for only a couple days in September and “soccer” isn’t as trendy as it’s in Europe over there.
Here’s the software top ten:
- Spider-Man
- NBA 2K19
- Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey
- FIFA 19
- Shadow of the Tomb Raider
- Madden NFL 19
- Forza Horizon 4
- Destiny 2
- Super Mario Party
- NHL 19
Talking about hardware sales, PlayStation 4 was the best selling console in September, likely because of the launch of Spider-Man as a much anticipated exclusive from Insomniac Games.
While overall console sales have been losing a 3% in comparison with last year’s September, it’s good to not that this has been the best September for PS4 since 2014.
On top of that, Xbox One has had a growth of over 30% in dollar sales compared with Sept. 2017, and Xbox One X has been Microsoft’s best selling item this year – which means it has had the biggest impact in incomes among the Xbox consoles family.
