Reported earlier this week, ANTHEM topped the latest UK charts, but its numbers were apparently rather low, meaning that many are expecting it to drop like a rock. Funnily enough, it looks like the same thing could be happening in Japan, where BioWare's sci-fi shooter flew straight to the top of the pile on PS4.

ANTHEM managed to move 78,000 copies in Japan at launch, which isn't too bad, but it didn't exactly have much competition. The only other new top ten entry on Sony's system was the complete edition re-release of NieR: Automata, coming in with 21,000 copies.

As we've come to expect, though, only super mega ultimate blockbusters boost PS4 hardware numbers these days, and so the current-gen console continues to move around 18,000 units per week with the PS4 Pro included.
