Must be the first time in quite a while an Xbox game has topped a retail chart, a shame they didn't compare it to other launches.

Chris Dring from GamesIndustry did compare it on Twitter. The physical launch is smaller than TotK, RE4, Hogwarts Legacy, FF16, Star Wars and Dead Island 2 and almost identical to Diablo 4.
That's only for physical.
