ANTHEM might have had a rocky launch, but it seems to have done alright for itself commercially so far. Sony has revealed the PlayStation Store's most downloaded games for the month of February in North America and Europe, and EA's loot shooter is number one in both regions.
In the US, Jump Force comes in second, while its debut isn't quite so strong in Europe, where it places sixth. For Far Cry: New Dawn, it's the other way round; in North America, the shooter manages eighth, while it's at number five in the old world. Meanwhile, Rockstar's juggernauts Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption 2 both place within the top 10 of each territory.
Beat Saber once again dominates the PSVR charts in both regions, and the NA free-to-play chart features Apex Legends at the top of the pile, as you might expect. Check out the full lists for the USA and Europe through the respective links. Which games did you download in February? Let us know in the comments below.

No accounting for taste.
ANTHEM and Jump Force at the top, jeez. You punks better buy Devil May Cry 5!
Surprising that Anthem sold so well - especially considering it only launched on the 22nd compared to games like Far Cry (15th), Ace Combat (1st), Jump Force (15th) and Metro (15th)...
Unfortunately for Bioware 'doing alright commercially' isnt good enough for EAs expectations. Still im not surprised its done well digitally especially since all the extra preorder bonuses were mainly digital
Happy to see anime games doing so well in the States. Not sure why they don't do as well in Europe. I know they're pretty popular in France, but maybe not so much everywhere else?
@BAMozzy - probably includes all the pre-order sales regardless of when they were placed, and that did have VIP access. metro is not a massively popular franchise, it only managed to sell around 15k copies physically in the UK across three platforms, relatively it's probably not going to have sold much more digitally. without actual numbers, it's hard to tell if it's been successful or not. in february you can make #1 with 20k copies, and in november not make top 10 with 100k.
