The vast majority of sales last month came from digital downloads, accounting for almost 65% of all the sales recorded. The biggest new release of the month was Sony's Dreams, which was the tenth best-selling game of the month across all markets It was also No.2 in the Czech Republic and it sold strongly in Germany, too, where it was at No.6. The game was a particular hit in Russia where it was the No.2 best-selling game. Metro Exodus actually returned to the charts during February 2020 thanks to the game's arrival on Steam, following a 12-month period as an Epic Store exclusive. Last year's big titles included Anthem, Far Cry New Dawn and Metro Exodus. But it was still a decent performance when you consider the number of new games released in February 2019 compared with this year. More than 10 million games were sold across EMEAA territories during February 2020, which is a drop of just over 6.7% compared with the same period the year before. In terms of physical numbers, FIFA 20 was the No.1 boxed product. Otherwise, it was another strong month for Grand Theft Auto 5, which was the top-selling digital game. According to press reports, the Ubisoft title was available to download via Steam for less than a cent in those two markets. The reason the 2014 game performed so well was because of its pricing in South Korea and Indonesia. Assassin's Creed Unity was the best-selling game across Europe, Middle East, Africa, Australia and Asian territories last month.
