CRASH TEAM RACING COVER PS4
Sales wise however - apparently whoever is bigger on the PS4 is overall the winner of the revenue race (ex. Crash Bandicoot on the other hand is a PS classic isn't it? :)Īnd that's good for the devs as it opens up enough market for both games to co-exist, alongside Mario Kart that's been out for a while now. I think there's been Sonic Racing on Nintendo since at least the Wii.
I think that either's franchise history with the platforms can explain that. However, Switch made up 39% of Sonic Team Racing's launch sales, but only 16% of Crash's. Interestingly, the audiences differed somewhat - 66% of Crash buyers are on PS4, while only 40% of Sonic's customers were on Sony's console. Here is the UKIE/GfK Top Ten for the week ending June 22nd: Last Week The only game that saw a lift in sales was Tom Clancy's The Division 2, up 15% this week. Most titles saw a drop in sales week-on-week, ranging from as little as 16% for Mario Kart to as high as 64% for Days Gone. However, Switch made up 39% of Team Sonic Racing's launch sales, but only 16% of Crash's.Īctivision's racer was one of only two releases that made it into the Top 40 this week, with Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night debuting at No.17. It outsold the next biggest game of the week, FIFA 19, by almost eight times as many copies.Ĭrash Team Racing also far outsold rival title Team Sonic Racing, with more than four times as many copies sold in week one. It's actually the third best launch of the year so far, behind Sony's Days Gone and another remake, Resident Evil 2. The revamped racing game launched at No.1, and enjoyed the second highest week one sales in the history of the franchise (the record-holder, of course, is the N Sane Trilogy). Having dominated the charts for the past two summer, Activision is aiming for a hat trick with the chart-topping debut of Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled.
