Zombies Challenge ‘Minecraft’ Console Dominance After Sony Updates PSN Sales Figures

Every month, Sony releases new charts that reveal the top-selling digital titles that were purchased through the Playstation Store over the previous period. While 4J Studios’ console editions of Minecraft are usually among the first few, best performing titles on both the PS4 and PS3, the popular block-building game slipped to a lower spot on Sony’s current-gen platform. The Playstation Network digital sales chart, which was released on the official Playstation Blog, saw an increase in titles that actually sold better than Minecraft‘s PS4 edition in February.

Topping the charts by moving more digital copies than any other Playstation 4 game this past month was Techland’s open-world zombie title, Dying Light. Meanwhile, 4J Studios’ PS4 port of Minecraft dropped down to the sixth spot on the list. While still high on the PS Store charts overall, this might seem low for Minecraft which is rarely seen outside of the top three spots on the monthly sales figure reports for the Playstation Network.
