Majora’s Mask bumped by God Eater from atop Japanese sales charts

God Eater’s all the rage (burst)

It wasn’t a long reign — just one week, in fact — but it was a good one. Majora’s Mask 3D has to settle for second place on the Japanese sales charts. God Eater 2: Rage Burst is the new ruler.

In its second week on the market, Majora’s Mask 3D moved an additional 72,181 units, bringing its lifetime total to just more than 300,000. God Eater 2: Rage Burst on Vita weighed in just shy of a quarter million at 234,180.

God Eater‘s success didn’t come out of left field, though. The series is basically Namco’s equivalent of Monster Hunter — both games in a genre that sell particularly well in Japan. The PS4 adaption of God Eater 2: Rage Burst chipped in an extra 37,824 sales. But, as is expected in Japan, the handheld version was far more popular.
