This week's Japanese software sales include a big Freedom Wars debut and Watch Dogs.
"The Bristol-based (the UK) indie games publisher Auroch Digital and indie games developer Positech Games, today announced with great happiness and thrill that their hit-political title "Democracy 4: Console Edition", is coming to consoles (PS4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) via digital stores on June 5th, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.

Fallout 4 is now available on next-gen consoles, offering 60fps gameplay and 4K resolution. But it's bad news if you claimed the game on PS Plus.
Probably won't happen for PS+ since Sony makes a clear distinction between a PS4 game and a PS5 game, unlike PC and Xbox where it is not a specific device game (It's now always an Xbox game).
So to make the PS5 game of fallout 4 available. Bethesda would need to renegotiate the complete deal with Sony.
hence why there's often only the PS4 version of the game available on PS+.
Let's hope Bethesda and Sony can arrive to term quickly.
In that same link, they talked to further support who said PS+ owners aren’t eligible. What a load of BS! The upgrade worked just fine for FF7R. I was looking forward to this. 😞
PS5 upgrades for PS4 games on PS+ are hit and miss. The reason is usually that publisher doesn’t want to hand out free upgrades. Sometimes they offer the upgrade upfront, sometimes they are bullied into it, and sometimes they offer it later in a special edition that Sony buys for PS+. It looks here like Bethesda’s intent was to raise the profile of Fallout 4 (and sell some DLC) so I expect we will see an update for PS+ versions soon.
Bethesda themselves acknowledged that Plus users are eligible. There is just some kind of glitch and they are working to fix it.
Roughly a fiver for disc. It's also £3.99 on PSN right now for both PS4 and ps5 version.
This article is funny. They tell you that $35 is a good deal for this game...We know whose side they are on.
not a bad number for freedom wars, it even boosted the vita sales quite a bit
Bit of a bad week for Mario Kart, but still strong overall.
Pretty solid numbers for Freedom Wars considering it's a new IP. Hopefully with good word of mouth it will have some staying power on the charts.
Vita is looking good in Japan, too bad the rest of the world can't see how great the system truly is. Playing Final Fantasy 10 on the go is sooooo good.
Watch Dogs failed in Japan? Very very low sales for first week...
over 3.3 milions of Monster Hunter 4. wow
