New data provides us with a look at the best-selling games of 2023 in Germany.
Before getting into the results, there are a couple of things to point out here. Nintendo doesn’t share eShop data, so digital isn’t really accounted for here and some companies – namely Epic and Larian – are not participating in Games Sales Data (GSD).
The full list of Germany’s best-selling games of 2023 can be found below.

UK’s best-selling games of 2023 revealed
Posted on 4 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
New GSD data has revealed the best-selling games of 2023 in the UK.
EA Sports FC 24 took the top spot followed by Hogwarts Legacy in second place. In terms of Nintendo-published games, Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is at #9 with Super Mario Bros. Wonder at #11. Keep in mind that Nintendo’s placements are only based on physical sales as the company does not provide digital data, so its games could have reached higher with that information.

Regarding the sales success for Hogwarts Legacy, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment president David Haddad told Variety:
