Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Sees A Resurgence On EMEAA Charts

Last week FIFA 20 was at the top of the EMEAA charts and it looks like the microtransaction infested game is still at the top of the EMEAA charts this week. In other words, folks in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Australia seem to like EA’s annual sports game as well as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.

Either a sale is going on right now or people over in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Australia are enjoying themselves with EA and Respawn Entertainment’s Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.

Personally speaking, I don’t get the game, but it has gone up from number five to number three on the top charts in the past week.

Furthermore, one of the biggest loot-box and microtransaction holder is still at the top spot of the EMEAA charts. EA seems to have a stronghold on multiple regions around the world — much like Activision and Infinity Ward snagging second with Modern Warfare — given that the company can keep hitting the number one spot over and over.

With all of that said, the top ten best-selling games according to digital and physical sales in EMEAA are up for the week ending December 15th, 2019. Additionally, the first number indicates the place the game landed for this chart while the second number reveals last week’s position:

  1. | 1 FIFA 20
  2. | 2 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
  3. | 5 Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
  4. | 3 Luigi’s Mansion 3
  5. | 4 Pokemon Sword
  6. | 6 Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
  7. | 7 Grand Theft Auto V
  8. | 8 Just Dance 2020
  9. | 11 Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games: Tokyo 2020
  10. | 9 Pokemon Shield

The above games and their respective numbering comes in courtesy of isfe.eu and gamesindustry.biz.

Well, with that said, I guess it’s safe to say that if a game is downright anti-consumer and looks to steal every shekel from your pocket or is as mediocre as they come, it has a chance of making it to the top spot whether it be in the U.S., UK, or around the world according to these sales charts.
