“Elden Ring repeated as the best-selling game of the month, and it remains the best-selling game of 2022 year to date,” NPD said in the revised statement.
Research firm NPD Group – which originally asserted Elden Ring was one of the top 10 best-selling games in history before retracting the claim due to “incomplete data” – reports in an updated statement that From Software’s action RPG has “placed first in dollar sales in four of its first five months in market”, is the best-selling game of June 2022, and remains “the best-selling game of 2022 year to date”.
Elden Ring is the best-selling game of 2022.
Earlier this week, Elden Ring publisher Bandai Namco confirmed reports it had been targeted by hackers, and admitted that confidential information was accessed on its servers.
