Overview
- GSD data for the week ending October 19 places Pokémon Legends: Z‑A at No. 1 in European unit sales, ahead of Battlefield 6.
- Launch retail sales across Europe were roughly 28% lower than Pokémon Legends: Arceus, marking a seven‑year low for a mainline Pokémon debut.
- In the UK, the Switch 2 edition outsold the original Switch version, and an official bundle helped lift Switch 2 hardware sales.
- The European rankings exclude Nintendo digital sales, so the figures reflect physical purchases only.
- Circana’s Mat Piscatella reports the game delivered the biggest US physical launch since The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
