In a surprising turn, Xbox titles dominated the PlayStation Store’s top downloads for April on the PS5, both in the US/Canada and EU regions. Microsoft’s first-party games secured the top three bestseller positions, highlighting their broad appeal even on rival platforms.
Sony revealed these unexpected results on the PlayStation Blog, showcasing the popularity of Xbox games among PS5 owners. Leading the charge were Bethesda’s “The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered” and Playground Games’ PS5 port of “Forza Horizon 5,” both released in April and quickly becoming digital hits. This indicates a growing trend of console exclusives becoming more accessible across platforms, or potentially reflects the quality and hype surrounding these specific titles. The success suggests that despite console loyalty, players are eager to experience compelling games regardless of their origin.
