It’s Xenoblade Chronicles 3’s release weekend, and while there was a lot of demand for the physical versions of the game, it seems like a lot of people are still opting for the digital version of the title. For some, these purchases may even be due to the delays associated with the fancier collector’s editions. According to the US eShop charts, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is now ahead of Minecraft. Even games like Nintendo Switch Sports and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – two titles that just received DLC updates. Digimon Survive has also snuck into sixth place, with Live A Live in 9th at the time of writing.
