Call of Duty: Vanguard and Spider-Man: Miles Morales take top PS5 digital sales spots for 2021

PlayStation Store's top-selling PS5 games of 2021 run the gamut of sports, shooting, and superheroic action.

A new post on the PlayStation Blog lays out the final rankings for the top downloads on Sony's digital store last year, with results broken out by region for PS5 as well as PS4.

The results are largely similar for PS5, with some natural deviations based on regional sporting interests, though Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and Kena: Bridge of Spirits present two interesting discrepancies: Ratchet came in number 6 in the US/Canada top-selling downloadable games chart but only made 14 in Europe, while Kena barely made the list at 20 in the US/Canada even as it sailed to number 7 in Europe. Battlefield 2042 also managed to rank number 5 in both regions, despite only coming out in November and receiving mixed reactions upon its debut.
