Sony released the list of its highest-downloaded games across all its platforms in May, and Rare’s Sea of Thieves has topped the PS5 charts in two territories. The former Xbox exclusive <a href="https://www.gameinformer.com/2024/02/21/sea-of-thieves-sets-sail-for-playstation-5-this-april">first arrived on the platform</a> on April 30.
A PlayStation Blog post reveals that Sea of Thieves was the best-selling PS5 title across the US/Canada and the EU, beating out top-performing games like Grand Theft Auto V, Madden NFL 24, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III. That’s quite the debut and shows that PlayStation owners have an appetite for the open-world co-op pirate game. It’s also worth noting that Grounded, another first-party Xbox exclusive that was brought to PlayStation in April, placed 11th on this list (for the US/Canada).
Here’s the full list of top 20 best-selling PS5 games in the US/Canada for May:
- Sea of Thieves
- Madden NFL 24
- Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III
- Helldivers 2
- NBA 2K24
- MLB The Show 24
- Stellar Blade
