October 3, 2021

Famitsu's best-selling Japanese video game rankings figures are now available for the week ending September 26, revealing that the Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot + A New Power Awakens Set video game entered the rankings in second place.

The game sold around 42.074 copies in its opening week in Japan, making it the highest-scoring Switch video game of the week. The first place (and the third, actually) went to Lost Judgment, with the PS4 version selling more than its PS5 counterpart.

Seven Switch games are in the top ten in total, with WarioWare: Get It Together! slipped from second to fourth place.
