The top download on the PS5 side was a game that was released some years back. Among Us had been around for some time before it went viral in 2020. At the time, the game was available on PC and Mobile. But the game launched on other platforms in November.
The release on PlayStation appears to have been very successful as it took both sides. The game, available for $4.99, finished ahead of big releases such as Call of Duty: Vanguard and Spider-Man Miles Morales.

Fortnite has taken the top download on both sides. The Epic Games hit title continues to be a giant in the free to play genre. Its latest season has likely brought in new players around the world. And after seeing what Epic Games has done with the collabs and events, we’ll likely see the battle royale title in the top five in the future.
