Market data analysis firm, Newzoo, has recently disclosed the top-grossing games and those with the highest user engagement for the month of May, with 'Fortnite' holding onto its crown.

This data encapsulates six key markets, including the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, and Italy, and covers PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch games.

The top five games in terms of participation remained unchanged from April, with 'Fortnite' leading the pack, followed by 'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare' 2, 3 and Warzone 2.0, 'Minecraft', 'Roblox' and 'GTA5'.

Ubisoft's free shooting game 'Hyper Scape', which was officially rolled out on the 21st of May, experienced a significant boost in user engagement, springing from 33rd place to 6th.

Among the top 20 earners were two new titles: The PC version of 'Ghost of Tsushima' perched at 5th place, while the remade 'Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door' came in 6th. Newzoo states that the release of 'Ghost of Tsushima' on PC has also boosted sales of the PlayStation version.

The overall income ranking of 'Elden Ring' also ascended by 17 spots, placing 20th in May. Although its DLC 'The Golden Shadows of the Tree' was released on June 21, evidently it has already spurred sales of the game itself the month prior.
