Final Fantasy VII Remake Headlines April’s PlayStation Store Download Chart

Final Fantasy VII Remake fought off popular multiplayer games (that have seen a bigger surge in demand due to global lockdowns) and claimed the number one spot in PlayStation Store USA’s download chart for the month of April. While Resident Evil 3 Remake made it into the top ten, it didn’t crack top five.

Two Call of Duty titles – Modern Warfare and Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered – rounded up the top five, followed by NBA 2K20 and the unstoppable Grand Theft Auto V.

April 2020’s top ten downloads in the USA were as follows:

1. Final Fantasy VII Remake
2. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
3. NBA 2K20
4. Grand Theft Auto V
5. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered
6. Resident Evil 3
7. Minecraft
8. EA Sports FIFA 20
9. Monopoly Plus
10. Marvel’s Spider-Man

Beat Saber was the most-downloaded PlayStation VR game in April, and Call of Duty: Warzone was unsurprisingly the most popular free-to-play game.
