Famitsu’s Japanese chart figures are now in for 23rd – 29th September, revealing that The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening<\/strong><\/a> has lost the first-place position it held last week. That honour has now been snapped up by Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age – Definitive Edition<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

The game is estimated to have sold a mighty 303,204 physical copies to top the charts, plonking itself ahead of other newcomers Code Vein<\/strong> and Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout<\/a><\/strong>, the latter of which incidentally performed better on PS4 than on Switch.<\/p>\n
