Call of Duty: Black Ops III enjoyed its second week at the top of the Japanese software charts according to the latest Media Create numbers. Proving that the shooter really does have worldwide appeal, the blast-'em-up sold through 43,629 copies in the last seven days, boosting total sales to a relatively impressive figure of 187,446 units.

Elsewhere, Assassin's Creed Syndicate entered in third place, while Need for Speed roared into sixth. Meanwhile, the PlayStation 4 stood strong, shifting 27,311 units and remaining at the top of the hardware charts. Fortunately for Sony, the system seems to have found some reasonable momentum following its price cut last month. In fact, the new-gen console has now passed the two million mark in its homeland, which isn't too shabby.
