no huge surprises, you may be interested to know that the middling Mafia: The Old Country was one of the month&#8217;s best-selling PS5 games.<\/p>\n<p>While it didn&#8217;t review especially well, the crime thriller action title made a splash in terms of sales, securing number one on the European chart and third on the North American chart.<\/p>\n<p>Across the pond, Madden NFL 26 took the top spot, while it&#8217;s nowhere to be seen in the EU bestsellers list.<\/p>\n<p>Hardcore shooter Ready or Not is also still doing very well for itself, coming in third in Europe and second in North America after a strong start in July.<\/p>\n<div class=\"for-mobile\">\n<figure class=\"youtube with-primis\" data-videoid=\"y-XGB8_bQ3s\" data-start=\"0\"
