Still, software sales were strong despite slower PS5 console sales. But that could change with the launch of GTA 6 in a couple of weeks. Speaking of sales figures, Nintendo has reported slower Switch 2 sales, but have not updated their financial outlook. Nintendo still expects to sell around 16 million Switch 2 units by the end of March 2027, and the console is still outpacing Year 2 sales of the Switch 1. The launch of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake should also give console sales a shot in the arm this holiday.IGNIn today's Daily Fix:Sony has finally revealed sales numbers for Marvel's Wolverine, and while it's already a million-seller, it's still well behind Insomniac's Spider-Man 2 over the same time period of two months.

Originally slated for February 2027, developer Sony Santa Monica said the game needs extra time to "make an extraordinary experience worth of the passion and dedication of our fans." This does free up a little room in a crowded post-holiday release calendar, with Fable, Metro 2039, and others still scheduled to be released around that time. In other news, Bloodborne still doesn't have a next-gen update, but Sony might not need one if the original keeps selling the way it is. According to industry analysts, Bloodborne sold 250,000 copies in 2026 alone, impressive for an 11-year-old game.

Sony made the announcement earlier this year, but won't go into effect for another few years. Kutaragi said he understands gamers' feelings about the issue, but that it wasn't "economically reasonable" to keep producing physical media anymore, at least not for PlayStation. He chalked it up to gamers' "mentality" around video game ownership. In related news, Congressman Ritchie Torres is introducing a bill that will establish regulations around digital ownership.
