Kingdom Hearts III and Resident Evil 2 continue their streak at the top after their debut in the prior week. Yet, this time around their momentum isn’t (predictably) enough to keep the PS4 on top.

Notable is also the release of Gust’s Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists: Ateliers of the New World. While the installed base gap between PS4 and Switch is getting smaller and smaller, the version of the game on Sony’s console sold considerably more than the Switch version.

On the other hand, the Switch port pretty much left the PS Vita version in the dust.
