The best-selling games for October 2023 have been revealed; can you guess what was No. 1?

 

October 2023:

 

 

Year to Date:

 

 

From Circana's analyst:

 

"Launch month dollar sales of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 exceeded those of September 2018’s Marvel’s Spider-Man by a double-digit percentage."

 

"Super Mario Bros. Wonder debuted as the #2 best-selling game of October 2023. It currently ranks as the 21st best-selling game of 2023 year-to-date (note: digital sales for Nintendo published titles are not in[c]luded in the title sales ranking charts)."

 

When asked if the inclusion of digital sales would have had it beat SM2, he said it would not have. There's a BIG gap between #1 and #2.

 

Quality reigns supreme in the Top 2.  Both games are fabulous.

Another Assassin's Creed game came out? Thought they were taking a break with that series.

The "break" was before Assassin's Creed Odyssey came out. You're a bit late here.

And actually at three years, this release is still the longest time between main entries in franchise history anyway.

The fact that Switch games aren’t including digital sales, which won’t be a small number is just wild.

We still see more Nintendo published games charting than this month though.  Maybe November will have more.

I’m shocked Hogwarts is still above Zelda in YTD. I didn’t expect that. Game has legs.
