Top 10 Best Selling Games in the US During March

The NPD Group (a research con­sumer group) released the best sell­ing titles for video games for the US mar­ket. It’s focused on the month of March, but also reveals the top ten games sold for the whole year, so far (April has not been includ­ed yet). 

Accord­ing to this list, Far Cry 5 is doing extreme­ly well. Not only was it num­ber one for the month of March, but is also cur­rent­ly hold­ing the num­ber one spot for the year. Sea of Thieves man­aged sec­ond for March, fol­lowed by MLB 18: The Show. Kir­by Star Allies is at fourth, and some­how, Grand Theft Auto V is fifth. How this title still man­ages to breach the top five not only in the US, but in the UK, is a surprise.

Below are the rest of top ten and anoth­er list for the top ten for the year:
