Global analytics firm Newzoo has released its latest monthly report, offering a closer look at which major game releases in March 2026 generated the most engagement and revenue.

The data showcases which titles are leading the charts in the first quarter of the year. As expected, Crimson Desert, Pokémon Pokopia, and Resident Evil Requiem have emerged as the top performers.

All three titles rank among the best-selling games by revenue from January to March 2026. Resident Evil Requiem holds the top position, followed by Crimson Desert in second place and Pokémon Pokopia in third. MLB The Show 26 and WWE 2K26 complete the top five. Further down the list, Marathon ranks sixth, Slay the Spire 2 takes seventh place, and indie title Mewgenics secures the eighth spot.

Crimson Desert leads a separate category when focusing specifically on PC game sales for March. It ranks first among best-selling PC titles, outperforming major live-service games such as Fortnite and Counter-Strike 2 , which take second and third place, respectively. Slay the Spire 2 also appears in the top five, ranking fourth, while World of Warcraft sits in fifth place.

Resident Evil Requiem is also featured in this category, though it ranks ninth. Notably, it is the only title among the three leading releases to appear across all major rankings, including overall top games by revenue, top PC games by revenue for March 2026, and top console games by revenue for the same period.

It is also the only new release of 2026 to secure a place in the top ten across all three categories. This performance shows the continued commercial success of Capcom, which has maintained strong momentum in recent years through its Resident Evil and Monster Hunter titles . Even projects outside these major franchises, such as Pragmata , are achieving strong sales shortly after release.

Despite their strong sales performance, none of these games managed to enter the top ten rankings for monthly active users (MAU) on either PC or consoles. Those positions continue to be dominated by established live-service titles such as Roblox, Candy Crush, Minecraft, etc.
