EA Sports FC 24 is coming to Switch, and this seems to be the first notable soccer (or football) game from EA on Nintendo’s console in years.

Thanks to GamesIndustry, we have new insight into the UK gaming market for June 2023.

For the second consecutive month, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was the best-selling physical game. However, it placed #6 overall. Nintendo does not share digital data, so it could have landed higher.
