According to the first exit polls, the National Rally won around 32%, more than double Macron's pro-EU coalition, which received 15% of the vote.
The first round of France's parliamentary election will be held on June 30 and a second round is scheduled for July 7.
Macron's government was already short of a majority in parliament, resorting to the use of special constitutional powers to bypass the legislature and force through multiple high profile laws.
