Fire Emblem Engage sales

Original (1/22): This week’s UK software sales are in, and it includes the first report on Fire Emblem Engage.

The new Switch title did manage to debut at #1. However, launch sales are 31 percent lower than Fire Emblem: Three Houses. While that may seem disappointing, Fire Emblem Engage earned the second biggest launch for the series in the UK. Fire Emblem Awakening is third in case you’re curious.

It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart. This week, Ys IX and Suikoden I&II HD Remaster appear for the first time.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between December 29 and January 11.
