Sony has revealed the best PlayStation Store downloads for January 2022, and here are some surprises. The US/Canada and EU lists have many of the same titles, but the rankings are a little different. The biggest difference is that Madden NFL 22 was number four of the month in the US/Canada, but not even in the EU (which is understandable).
