In addition to the (unsurprisingly) successful RPG Elden Ring, a number of other genres were represented. Gran Turismo 7, Grand Theft Auto V, and WWE 2K22 had solid performances in both regions. Tiny Tina's Wonderlands also entered the top 5 in the US/Canada, while in football-mad Europe, FIFA 22 is at number 5. One of the biggest PlayStation exclusives of March, Ghostwire: Tokyo, made the top ten in the US/Canada, but only 16th place in Europe.

Gran Turismo 7 for the PS4 failed to take pole position in any of the regions. It was beaten by Elden Ring and WWE 2K22 in US/Canada, while FIFA 22 continues its reign at the top of the charts in Europe. While Tiny Tina's Wonderlands peaked at number five in the US/Canada, but didn't even make the European charts. And long-running Minecraft makes it to number five in Europe.
