Posted on January 23, 2023 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch
Original (1/22): This week’s UK software sales are in, and it includes the first report on Fire Emblem Engage.
The new Switch title did manage to debut at #1. However, launch sales are 31 percent lower than Fire Emblem: Three Houses. While that may seem disappointing, Fire Emblem Engage earned the second biggest launch for the series in the UK. Fire Emblem Awakening is third in case you’re curious.
Something else noting is that Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle saw a 104 percent sales increase. Retailers like Argos and Amazon were selling the game for only £11.
