PS4 regains sales top spot for month of June – NPD

The NPD results are in for this past June and it makes for pretty reading if you’re a PlayStation fan.

Sony’s black box of tricks is once again leading both the hardware and software sales following a slip back in May where Microsoft pulled ahead momentarily.

Speaking on the reasoning behind the success last month, a Sony spokesperson said: “PlayStation 4 was the top-selling console in the United States in June due to the overwhelming popularity of the Batman: Arkham Knight PS4 bundles.” 

Couple that with the successful releases of both The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited and Lego: Jurassic World and it’s little wonder that PS4 ascended to the top of the software stakes.

Here’s a rundown of the software charts:

1.) Batman: Arkham Knight (PS4, Xbox One, PC)

2.) The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited (Xbox One, PS4, PC)

3.) Lego: Jurassic World (360, Xbox One, PS4, PS3, 3DS, Wii U, Vita)

4.) The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (PS4, Xbox One, PC)

5.) Splatoon (Wii U)

6.) Minecraft (360, PS3, Xbox One, PS4)

7.) Grand Theft Auto V (Xbox One, PS4, 360, PS3, PC)

8.) Mortal Kombat X (PS4, Xbox One)

9.) NBA 2K15 (360, PS4, Xbox One, PS3, PC)

10.) Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (Xbox One, PS4, 360, PS3, PC)
