PlayStation: revealed the most downloaded games of 2021

In an official post published on the PlayStation Blog, a ranking has been drawn up regarding the most downloaded games in the course of 2021: here are what they are

Finding ourselves having to face a new year ahead of us, we just have to think of 2021 as another year that will recede over time. It has been a strange year, not characterized by excessively important outputs, almost as if it were a kind of “filler year” waiting for the biggest titles planned for 2022. Despite this, there were still some rather relevant creations, and the absence of thick titles finally, it played a rather interesting role at the awards ceremony of The Game Awards 2021 in December, thus opening up numerous scenarios relating to the winners of the various categories.

In the end, it was It Takes Two that got away with it all, receiving numerous nominations and also being crowned the best game of the year. However, its success does not seem to lead it to still be among the most played titles, at least not for the PS Store: this is what emerges from a recent ranking of the most downloaded games of 2021, published on the PlayStation blog, which leads us to take a more than illuminating look at the games that have depopulated the most for buyers of titles in digital format.
