The NPD report for July 2022 has confirmed that Switch again led monthly video game console sales in the United States when it comes to units. Additionally, the same fact applies to the overall year so far.
Switch was the leader for unit sales, but PlayStation 5 was the leader for the actual dollar amount when it comes to July and 2022 as a whole. It’s worth noting that Sony’s system is more expensive than Switch as the digital version is priced at $400 followed by the standard model at $500.

The retailer has the title down for launch on November 15, 2022. Multiple rumblings are pointing to that date, but we still don’t have confirmation from SEGA. The PlayStation database also listed the November 15 date at one point, and while everything could be a placeholder, it’s looking quite possible at this point.
