Circana has released a listing of the top ten best-selling games in the U.S. for the month of April 2023.
A few new games make their first appearance, including Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection which cracks the top ten. Final Fantasy I-VI Bundle also made the list, as did Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp – the latter of which doesn’t include digital sales and could have charted higher.
Here’s a look at the complete list of best-selling games in the U.S. for April 2023:
