The monthly NPD game sales report shows the industry had another terrible month overall, but one Warner Bros. Interactive and NetherRealm Studios are likely pretty proud of.

There was a $175.1 million in non-PC software sales during the month of May, led by the DC Comics-based fighting game, Injustice: Gods Among Us. 2012's Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 maintained its spot in the top five, with Donkey Kong Country Returns, Dead Island: Riptide, and Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon rounding out the month's top sellers.

Software sales were down 31 percent from where they were just one year ago, which is not particularly good. 2012 was already a down year, so to have performed so far below last May's numbers doesn't bode well for the rest of 2013. New consoles should help the industry recover a bit, but it's going to be some time until hardware and software industry is back in the black.
