Witcher 3 Money

Despite The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's admirable efforts to stick in the top 10, PlayStation 4 unit sales have fallen yet again. Sony's newest console only managed to shift 10,822 units last week, but to be fair, the hardware charts make for generally depressing reading overall.

Alien: Isolation - a new release in Japan - was the only other PS4 title to make it into the top 20. It debuted in 8th place, but even then, it only sold a meagre 6,227 copies.

With any luck, the announcements to come out of E3 2015 will have a positive effect on both software and hardware sales this coming week. With titles like Final Fantasy VII Remake confirmed to be in the works, we'd dare to imagine that sales will enjoy a boost - but things are undoubtedly looking bleak in the meantime.
