We’re still in October, but thankfully, a week before the month ends, ESA Canada has revealed on their updated website Canada’s top-selling games for September 2023. Claiming the number one spot was Starfield. Once again, this is endeavour was conducted in partnership with ESA Canada and marketing research firm Circana (formerly known as the NPD Group).
Similar to past months we do have some holders from August 2023’s top-selling games but only half survived this time around as four other spots in the top 10 were claimed by some other notable September-released games showing the fall season of game releases came to play.
Those new additions include EA Sports FC 24, Mortal Kombat 1, The Crew Motorfest, and NBA 2K24, with the fifth one being the already-mentioned Starfield. While the rest from the past months of releases like Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon, Madden NFL 24, Hogwarts Legacy, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Although it’s very noticeable that Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has surprisingly fallen off, maybe that will change once the rush to holiday shopping comes around
