Japan Steam sales ranking trends

Overview

Steam sales rankings in Japan show consistent dominance by Electronic Arts’ ‘Apex Legends’, which held the top position for at least 15 consecutive days by mid-August.

Earlier in August, Konami Digital Entertainment’s ‘Yu‑Gi‑Oh! Master Duel’ reached the #2 spot following 100 million cumulative downloads and a related in-game campaign. Other notable movements included ‘Super Robot Wars Y’ and ‘Seven Deadly Sins: Origin’ climbing the charts.

By mid-August, sales surges were observed for other titles, including ‘hololive Dreams’, which rose to 2nd place due to a summer event, and ‘Nioh 3’, which jumped 84 places following a DLC release. ‘Mortal Shell II’ also entered the top 10 during its advance access period.
