Circana has released a listing of the top ten best-selling games in the U.S. for the month of May 2023.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was the biggest release of the month, and it’s no surprise that the game managed to top the chart at #1. Nintendo previously announced that over four million copies were sold alone in the Americas in its first three days. This title was also the fastest-selling Switch game and the fastest-selling Nintendo game for any system in that territory.
Also worth noting, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom amiibo led May accessories in unit sales. Breath of the Wild returned to the top 20 monthly chart in May, placing at #13 after finishing April at #28.
