It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart! Not too much has changed in the top five, though Hyrule Warriors has finally exited following its release in Japan.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, Persona 5, Final Fantasy XV, Kingdom Hearts III, and Super Smash Bros. for 3DS top the latest list. For the full lineup, head past the break.
