Overview

  • Requiem led February 2026 and year-to-date U.S. sales despite only one day falling within Circana’s monthly tracking window.
  • It topped the monthly charts on PlayStation, Xbox and aggregated PC storefronts, and its Switch 2 release appeared on Nintendo’s platform rankings.
  • Capcom said the game sold more than six million copies worldwide within 17 days of launch.
  • In the U.S., PS5 was the lead platform for Requiem by a meaningful margin over PC, and PS5 also led February hardware in both unit and dollar sales.
  • Switch 2 contributed to a 22% year-over-year hardware spending increase and is tracking 45% ahead of the original Switch at nine months, while subscription services kept total consumer spend roughly flat.
