PS5 fans, hang on to your helmets! For the month of March 2024, Sony revealed the most downloaded PS5 games in the US and Canada, offering a fascinating insight into player preferences.
Democracy Prevails: Helldivers 2 Reigns Supreme
Helldivers 2 continues to hold the crown for a record number of consecutive months, thanks to an unexpected but thrilling turn of events.
With its frantic action, emphasis on teamwork and an innovative “managed democracy” approach, Arrowhead’s strategy coop shooter is still drawing interest from the players.
It is probably contributing to its continuing popularity by the constant stream of new content, as well as a possibility for unlimited access to premium battle passes with no actual money spent on them.
New Releases Make a Strong Showing
A surge of highly anticipated titles took place in March, with two of them making impressive debuts on the charts. Second place goes to MLB The Show 24 which demonstrates that baseball is still popular with console fans.
Hot on its heels is Dragon’s Dogma 2, securing the third spot and suggesting a strong revival for this beloved action RPG franchise.
Familiar Favorites and New Challengers
With World Wrestling Entertainment 2K24 matching the success of its predecessor in 2023 with a fourth place finish, this wrestling craze is still gripping players.
Team Ninja’s highly anticipated historical action title, Rise of the Ronin, makes a respectable debut at ninth, hinting at its potential to climb the charts in the coming months.
Horror and Humor Find Their Audience
The Outlast Trials has delivered the signature shiver to horror fans, placing 14th in its ranking. On the lighter side, South Park: Snow Day brings humor to the battlefield, rounding out the top 15 with a 15th-place finish.
Not Every Newcomer Makes the Cut
While established franchises and some fresh faces left their mark, it’s worth noting that several new releases didn’t crack the top 20. Microsoft’s Hi-Fi Rush port, the Alone in the Dark reboot, and the quirky Unicorn Overlord all failed to garner enough downloads to make the list.
Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth Holds Steady
It’s not a new release, but Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth has been impressive in its performance. It’s settled well in 11th place for March, after it started at the end of February and rose to number two.
