Sony executives will probably be whipping out the party poppers this week, as the NPD Group has revealed that Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, the PS5-exclusive outing from first-party studio Insomniac Games, has topped the charts for June 2021.
The dynamic duo’s latest adventure managed to top not only the multiformat chart but also the PlayStation chart too, giving it double victory. As reported by @DomsPlaying on Twitter, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart also gave the series its best start as measured by launch month dollar sales, which doubled that of 2016’s Ratchet & Clank.
