The NPD Group have just released their sales charts for the month of June, which was emphatically topped by Naughty Dogs The Last of Us: Part II. Now in a separate tweet, industry analyst Mat Piscatella has revealed the current top five selling PS4 console exclusives, based on dollar sales.
The chart, which takes into account both physical and digital sales, looks like this;

The chart does come with some caveats that have a fairly significant impact on the chart. Sales of games that were included as part of hardware bundles do not count towards the overall amount, neither does DLC sales nor microtransactions. The reason this is so significant is that Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End is the top-selling PS4 exclusive (and second top-selling PS4 game behind GTA V) when looking at actual units sold. However, the reason for the omission from this list though is because it sold heavily as part of a PS4 console bundle when the game was released.
This paves the way for Marvel’s Spider-Man, which recently had pseudo-sequel Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales announced, to take the top spot. This is relatively unsurprising because as well as being a fantastic game, it dropped right when the MCU was at its most prevalent and Marvel’s popularity was at an all-time high.
