The weeks go by and look alike on the sales side of games for the French market. This is not a scoop for anyone, but French players systematically buy the same licenses, things are not moving. This week again, from November 30 to December 6, 2020, We can see that Animal Crossing New Horizons is prancing at the top of sales, while Mario Kart 8 Deluxe makes a thunderous comeback by moving directly to second place. We do not know if it is the holiday season, but Nintendo’s kart game allows itself to overtake FIFA 21, Call of Duty Black Ops Cold Ward and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla which are however recent releases. We also observe that in this Top 5, it is mainly about Nintendo and PS4 games, which remain the two most popular machines in France.
On PC, the World of Warcraft Shadowlands effect has faded since Blizzard’s title has disappeared from the Top 3, and even leaves its crown to Flight Simulator which takes back its rights, in front of a 2021 Football Manager in form and the add- on The Sims 4 Snow Getaway.
