Overview
- Toby Fox’s Deltarune was the best-selling third-party launch title by digital units on the U.S. eShop in June, outperforming Nintendo exclusives like Mario Kart World.
- Fortnite generated the highest digital revenue among all third-party titles despite its free-to-play model and was excluded from unit-sales rankings.
- Fast Fusion sold more digital copies than Cyberpunk 2077 but earned less revenue, underscoring the impact of pricing and monetization strategies.
- Across the United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy and Spain, three of the top five Switch 2 games by digital units sold were third-party releases, pointing to a shifting ecosystem balance.
- Newzoo’s report covers only June’s digital sales and omits physical transactions, indicating that longer-term data will be needed to assess sustained third-party performance.
