Our congrats go to Wizards of the Coast’s Magic: The Gathering – Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013 for taking the top spot in June! Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013 features amazing artwork and intuitive yet deep tactical competition, so it’s no surprise that fans summoned this download more than any other in June.

On the PS Vita side, the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection proved that, after 25 years, Snake’s still got it. PSN users downloaded this portable collection in droves in order to re-live two of Snake’s finest missions, Metal Gear Solid 2 and Metal Gear Solid 3, with high-res visuals, extra content, and transfarring.

There’s more, too. Legend of Dragoon continued to reign over PSone Classics, Need for Speed: Most Wanted conquered the PS2 charts, and Monster Hunter Freedom Unite took top honors in PSP. Have any predictions for next month’s list? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!

The Walking Dead made a big impression on PSN players this month, with the first episode of Telltale Games’ episode zombie series claiming the top spot in May. You’ll also notice a great resurgence in the PixelJunk series, due likely in part to May’s deep-discount PixelJunk sale that saw many PixelJunk favorites sell for a just buck.

In PS Vita news, Escape Plan’s iron grip on the throne has finally been loosened — NetherRealm Studios’ bone-crunching fighter Mortal Kombat takes the top slot this month. In PS one Classics, Legend of Dragoon’s long-awaited release reshuffled the usual crowd of top performers. Starting this month, by community request, we’re also happy to integrate a new chart examining PS2 Classics performance! In May, Max Payne stole the show just in time for Max Payne 3’s arrival on Blu-ray Disc.

Welcome to this month’s PSN Top Sellers, where we break down the content that moved the most over the past month.

Looks like a lot of you had football fever as a ton of PSN gamers picked up NFL Blitz, EA Sports’ revival of the arcade and console classic and a perfect accompaniment to the end of the NFL season. On the handheld front, Corpse Party went for its third straight month at the top of the PSP charts, but the imminent release of PS Vita may spark a new surge in PSP title downloads — check back next month. In PSone Classics, while Final Fantasy VI enjoyed the top spot last month, Final Fantasy VII reclaimed its (rightful?) spot at the top. Lastly, Battlefield 3 DLC earned two spots on the Add-Ons category. Will Modern Warfare 3 DLC for Elite members hitting in February move the needle?
