Yoko Taro's JRPG NieR: Automata keeps Monster Hunter World at bay with deep discounts on Sony's own digital sales ranking for PS4.

Sony Interactive Entertainment published its sales chart for PS4 digital sales on the Japanese PlayStation Store, related to the period between February 26th and March 4th.

Below you can read the full chart.

NieR: Automata Monster Hunter World Metal Gear Survive Girls Und Panzer Dream Tank Match Rainbow Six Advanced Edition Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles Undertale Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition Minecraft: PlayStation 4 Edition Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullett Dynasty Warriors 9 Secret of Mana Dragon Ball Fighterz Dragon Quest III Gran Turismo Sport Valkyria Chronicles Remastered Senran Kagura Burst Re:Newal Pro Evolution Soccer 2018 Destiny 2 Crash Bandicoot N’Sane Trilogy

NieR: Automata definitely benefited from the deep discount offered by Square Enix to celebrate the 1st Anniversary of Yoko Taro’s critically acclaimed action JRPG.

It prevented Monster Hunter World to shoot back to the top after one week in which it was beaten by Metal Gear Survive. Konami’s attempt to keep the Metal Gear series active is still holding rather well itself dropping only to third place.

Girls Und Panzer Dream Tank Match also did well, losing only one position, from third to fourth.
