It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart. This week, Dragon Quest XI S moves up to #2, Fire Emblem: Three Houses enters the top five, and Pokemon Sword/Shield and Rune Factory 5 appear for the first time.

A few days ago, we found out that Hollow Knight will have a physical version after all despite being cancelled previously. Fangamer will even be releasing a special collector’s edition.

For those in Europe, you’ll be happy to hear that the standard edition of Hollow Knight will also be offered there. Amazon Spain is already taking pre-orders here.

As for the collector’s edition, it looks like it will be a Fangamer-exclusive. Importing is an option, but we’re hearing that shipping costs can be rather high.

Thanks to axel for the tip.
