Famitsu has served up our latest look at the Japanese gaming charts and after two weeks at the top, Zelda has fallen.

Yes, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom has dropped down to fifth this week (still with an impressive 19,710 sales, mind you) as a host of new releases mix things up.

It's Metaphor: ReFantazio on PS5 that claims the top spot this week, putting up 82,827 on Sony's latest system and an additional 25,385 on PS4. Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero debuts in second while the Silent Hill 2 remake on PS5 snatches the last podium spot.

Of course, the familiar Nintendo faces are a little further down the top 10, but it's nice to see Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord cropping up at sixth in its debut week with a crisp 8,061 sales.
