Days Gone<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/span>: A Success Here, A Failure There!<\/p>\n Sony’s newest PlayStation 4-exclusive didn’t become a bestseller on the PlayStation Store in all regions. The US PlayStation Blog<\/a><\/strong><\/span> reports that SIE Bend Studio’s newest game didn’t manage to start on the top of the PlayStation Store charts, as Mortal Kombat 11 managed to surpass Deacon! It’s a significant surprise! Let’s see the US PlayStation 4 top ten:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 1 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Mortal Kombat 11<\/p>\n 2 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Days Gone<\/p>\n 3 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 World War Z<\/p>\n 4 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Borderlands: Game of the Year Edition<\/p>\n 5 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 MLB The Show 19<\/p>\n 6 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Minecraft: PlayStation 4 Edition<\/p>\n 7 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Borderlands: The Handsome Collection<\/p>\n 8 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Call of Duty: Black Ops 4<\/p>\n 9 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Tom Clancy\u2019s The Division 2<\/p>\n 10 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice<\/p>\n <\/p>\n With Borderlands, it’s weird to see claiming two places, especially how the collection with more games is 7th, while the updated first game is 4th. We don’t get it. (And seeing MLB in fifth isn’t surprising either… America loves baseball.) There’s no PlayStation Vita list anymore. What a shame. Did Sony entirely move on from the handheld? Alright, let’s see the PlayStation VR top ten then:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 1 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Beat Saber<\/p>\n 2 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Job Simulator<\/p>\n 3 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Superhot VR<\/p>\n 4 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Creed: Rise to Glory<\/p>\n 5 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Gun Club VR<\/p>\n 6 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Angry Birds VR: Isle of Pigs<\/p>\n 7 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Killing Floor: Incursion<\/p>\n 8 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Drunkn Bar Fight<\/p>\n 9 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Borderlands 2 VR<\/p>\n 10 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Rick and Morty: Virtual Rick-ality<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We see the usual suspects, but Beat Saber’s success is commendable.<\/p>\n Let’s see Europe, as the EU PlayStation Blog<\/a><\/strong><\/span> shows entirely different results. On our continent, Days Gone started on top, while Mortal Kombat 11 only got to fourth place, as Grand Theft Auto V (which retained its second place from March) and World War Z (which also debuted in third place in the US) finished ahead of it. (We won’t copy the full top 20 in, only the first ten. Brackets show the games’ position in the previous month.)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n There will be a few familiar titles with the PlayStation VR list:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n So, American and European tastes in gaming differ significantly. Still, it’s a surprise to see Sony’s newest exclusive to NOT claim first place in both regions. (We need to mention that the EU PS Blog only lists three charts – we skipped the DLC one. With the US PS Blog, we skipped the free-to-play and the PS4 themes charts.)<\/p>\n\n
