Just as seen in the past week, also in this case it is Final Fantasy 16 to be the most awaited game by the Japanese public of Famitsu, with Xenoblade Chronicles 3 following and a Splatoon 3 that is running at a great career, reaching almost the second position.

For the rest, we are witnessing the usual domination of Nintendo Switch games that occupy a large part of the ranking, at least in the upper area. As always, it must be considered that the sample of users examined is rather small, but it can be considered indicative of the tastes and trends of the Japanese public.
