Crash Remaster Is Back At No. 1 In Australia And New Zealand

Published on in Default by Jennifer Stephens

After dropping down to No. 2 in last week’s charts, the Crash Bandicoot remaster is back at No. 1 in Australia and New Zealand. The IGEA has released the latest weekly physical game sales charts for both regions, and the N. Sane Trilogy sold the most on the all-platforms chart in the two markets for the week ended August 6.

The game was outsold by the hugely popular Rugby League Live 4 the week prior. That game, developed by Australian studio Big Ant, landed in the No. 2 position for the latest week in both Australia and New Zealand on the all-platforms chart.

The N. Sane Trilogy is also a chart-topper in the UK and the US. Speaking about the game’s commercial success earlier this month on an earnings call, Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg said, “Crash has surpassed all of our expectations by a pretty wide margin.” Activision is considering more remasters of its other games, too.

You can see the full charts for the week ended August 6 below, broken down by platform. As usual, they cover physical game sales only. Another thing to note is that the group that puts together these lists, the Interactive Games & Entertainment Association, does not release specific sales numbers.
