Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope sales

According to a report from VGC, Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope has sold nearly three million copies. That would be combined physical and digital sales worldwide.

The VGC report, based on its sources, said the sales momentum “was partly helped by discounting on the Nintendo eShop, means Sparks of Hope is performing roughly in line with the historical performance of the first game, which went on to reach 10 million players.” However, while Kingdom Battle launched during Switch’s first year, Sparks of Hope released during a significantly higher install base.

New data provides us with a look at the best-selling games of 2023 in Germany.

Before getting into the results, there are a couple of things to point out here. Nintendo doesn’t share eShop data, so digital isn’t really accounted for here and some companies – namely Epic and Larian – are not participating in Games Sales Data (GSD).
