IT Home News on July 19, according to the latest data provided by GfK, "The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom" defeated "Hogwarts Legacy" and "FIFA 23", and won the first place in the European sales list in the first half of this year.
IT House found from the chart released by Gfk that the statistical data includes the sales ranking of the physical version of the game in the main regions of the UK and the EU, but no specific sales data is released. Among them, "The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom" became the best-selling work in the UK and EU markets, while "Hogwarts Legacy" ranked second, and "FIFA 23" ranked third.
It is not surprising that "The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom" has achieved such a good result. Three days after the release of the game, it was officially announced that the global sales of the game had exceeded 10 million copies (2.24 million copies in Japan, and more than 4 million copies in the United States). A record set in 2018, becoming the fastest selling Nintendo game ever.
"Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom" is a new work in the Zelda series after "Zelda: Breath of the Wild" in 2017. It continues the open-world game style while adding more innovative elements and easter eggs. In the game, the player will play the role of the brave Link, and together with Princess Zelda, explore the mysteries of the Kingdom of Hyrule and save the world eroded by the forces of darkness.
