If the big holidays are not the most fruitful time in terms of video game sales, some still manage to pull out of the game; Nintendo for example. By marketing
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 straddling July and August, the Kyoto firm manages to interest people who have not gone to the beach edges. Result of the races: the J-RPG developed by Monolith Software takes the lead in the ranking of the French Charts for Weeks 30 and 31 July. Horizon 2 Forbidden West, which had made a leap last week by returning to the Top 5, manages to stay in second position, over the two consecutive weeks. A great feat when you know how much games on Nintendo Switch take everything in their path, with the added bonus of the return of Nintendo Switch Sports, the summer game for the general public par excellence. On PC, the release of The Sims 4: High School Years has turned the rankings upside down, since the latest DLC of the management game takes the lead in the Top 3 for 2 consecutive weeks. Proof that the Maxis studio and Electronic Arts have no need to release The Sims 5 in a hurry…
