Psyonix football on wheels has no ceiling : after a first year in which it became one of the most successful games almost instantly, ‘Rocket League’ consolidates in 2016, leading the sales of the PlayStation digital store above from ‘Grand Theft Auto V’, ‘Uncharted 4’ or ‘FIFA 17’ itself.
The official PlayStation blog has announced the 20 best-selling games on the PlayStation Network in the past year , although it is possibly no surprise that those 20 places are occupied by PS4 titles, although it is striking that only two games are exclusive licenses from Sony .
Among the most notable we find a ‘Battlefield 1’ surpassed by ‘Battlefield 4’ -there was a spectacular digital reduction last year-, an ‘Uncharted 4 that remains in seventh position, an abundant presence of Electronic Arts games through his war and sports sagas or a ‘Minecraft’ that sneaks into the top 10 of downloads.
Below you can see the complete list:
- Rocket League (PS4)
- Fifa 17 (PS4)
- Battlefield 4 (PS4)
- Battlefield 1 (PS4)

For its part, Sony has also broken down December sales by systems. ‘Ark: Survival Evolved’ opens in a big way in the last month of the year on PS4 followed by ‘Battlefield 1’ and ‘Grand Theft Auto V’, PlayStation VR Worlds is the preferred proposal within the PS VR catalog, ‘Persona 4 Golden ‘and’ Minecraft ‘respectively crown the top of PS Vita and’ FIFA 17 ‘is comfortably imposed on PS3.
Finally, in terms of downloadable content, the most popular last month was the ‘Final Fantasy XV’ Season Pass, followed by ‘Rocket League’ content and the ‘Star Wars battlefront’ season pass.
‘Rocket League’ continues to expand its success and not only in Sony’s digital store: recently we could see that it became the second game with the highest growth of players on Steam and it is estimated that it has made more than 32 million dollars on the platform from Valve. Little joke for a formula as simple as crazy.
