Despite the rough launch, EA’s Anthem (which we reviewed here) managed to top the list of units sold in the United States for February.
According to the group, which tracks trends in a variety of areas, Anthem debuted as the top-seller of the month, and has now become the second highest-selling game of 2019 (behind Kingdom Hearts III).
As for other genre fare, Ubisoft’s Far Cry New Dawn came in fourth for sales, Capcom’s Resident Evil 2 remake took the sixth spot, and Metro Exodus landed in eighth position for February. And in spite of its pre-launch controversies, launch months sales for Metro Exodus exceeded that of its predecessor, Metro Last Light, by almost fifty percent.
Anthem‘s first major update, “Echoes of Reality”, is expected later this month.
