This was certainly a surprise. Sony has released their monthly list of top selling games on the PlayStation Store, and the winner is definitely not what you expected. Battlefield 4, EA and DICE’s shooter from 2013 has taken the top spot, even beating Blizzard’s juggernaut of a game, Overwatch. While the news is a bit shocking at first, it all makes sense in context, though it does show the staying power of BF4.
For the month of June 2016 Battlefield 4 and its followup, Battlefield: Hardline, were on a steep discount. The games were available for just $4.79 a piece, and the sales charts show it. Hardline took the third place spot just behind Overwatch. This shows a few things: that there is still a ton of interest in these games, and that Battlefield 4 seems to have a few more fans.
As far as the rest of the list goes, you can check it out below. For PS3, Dark Souls 2, Grand Theft Auto V, and The Last of Us took the top honors, showing once again the power of a fantastic game.
