The record of the video game market in the United States for the month of March 2022 has arrived, and it is Costaud. Despite a total turnover down 15% because still penalized by insufficient production capacity of consoles, there were a number of notable things last month in terms of machine sales. games.
With a turnover of 4.9 billion dollars, March 2022 is therefore down 15% compared to March 2021. Consequence, the balance sheet of the first quarter 2022 is itself declined by 8% compared to the first Quarter 2021 and reached $ 13.9 billion. At the forefront of this decline, sales of consoles reaching $ 515 million in March, a decline of 24%.
Yet a builder comes out of the lot this month: Microsoft has simply realized the best March month of its history in the United States, surpassing the performance of the Xbox 360 in March 2011 (433,000 consoles sold). If this is not enough to pass in front of the volume switch, the Xbox Series is the console that currently performs the largest turnover over the last three months.
We know, by the times that run, the one who puts the most consoles on the market that the other wins the game. And at this very random game, it is Sony which is the most struck by the shortage since the beginning of the year. Consequence over the first quarter 2022, the PlayStation 5 is beaten by both the switch (in number of consoles sold) and the Xbox Series (in turnover). In this context, we guess that putting a small throttle on the PC would not hurt the business.
Remains an area in which Sony can rejoice at this moment: the remarkable success of its exclusives. But before approaching the subject, honor to the king, place at the champion. Despite the jostling competition at the door, Elden Ring has not shaking and stays by far the best selling game for the second consecutive month, even increasing more than 10% compared to its sales of february. Everything has already been said about its world success that has resulted in a hallucinating score of 12 million copies elapsed around the world.
Without the phenomenon signed fromSoftware, it is Gran Turismo 7 who would have seized the throne, but the race simulation has in any case won his little crown to her: this episode realized the best launch of the story of the franchise in 25 years. Small detail, this better launch has been realized in value but not in volume. To complete the podium, we welcome Kirby and the forgotten world **, which also signs the best launch of the history of the franchise, even if the NDP has not noted this detail.
On the other hand, the NDP emphasizes a very important point for MLB The Show 22 , which we would have to be accused of counter-performance: if baseball simulation is "4th in the ranking, it is Because only sales of MVP and Digital Deluxe editions are taken into account, the standard editions of the game being out too late to appear in the March ranking. Suffice to say that even Elden Ring could take a stroke of battle in the next month's ranking, especially as the switch adds this year to the PlayStation and Xbox consoles.
The top 5 ends with Horizon Forbidden West that seems honorably for its second month. Despite the exceptional presence of 3 News PlayStation Studios in the Top 5, the disappearance of Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles , yet subscribed to the top 20 since November 2020, well illustrates the lack of availability of the PS5.

Including downloads, this ranking is calculated based on turnover and not the number of copies sold. As a reminder, the Nintendo and Take-Two Interactive games are penalized by the fact that these publishers do not share their sales for download with the NDP, a detail to consider for Tiny Tina's Wonderlands and Triangle Strategy, including. Finally, the downloads on subscriptions like the PlayStation Plus and the Xbox Game Pass are obviously not as sales, as well as the Free-To-Play are not affected by these rankings.
