Ghost of Yotei took first place. In the first three months, the game sold over 50,000 physical copies. According to analysts, digital sales were comparable, so the total result could have exceeded 100,000 units. This is a strong indicator for the local market.
Assassin's Creed Shadows took second place. 0451 Games notes that both games successfully tapped into the Indian audience's interest in major projects set in Japan. EA Sports FC 26 and Battlefield 6 followed in the chart.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 rounded out the top five. The game did not receive an official release in India, but demand was supported by parallel imports and high critical acclaim. According to surveyed retailers, interest in the project remained throughout the year.
