Hogwarts Legacy has the potential to become the best-selling game in the United States market this year, surpassing Call of Duty and Rockstar Games, who have held this position since 2008. Even though Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has only been on the market for a month, it is already following closely behind.
Mat Piscatella, the Managing Director of Circana (formerly NPD), a market research company, posted on X about the game sales from January to November, including both game sales and DLC. The top 20 best-selling games are as follows:
1. Hogwarts Legacy
2. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
3. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
4. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
5. Madden NFL 24
6. Diablo IV
7. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
8. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor
9. Mortal Kombat 1
10. Starfield
11. Resident Evil 4
12. EA Sports FC 24
13. MLB: The Show 23
14. Dead Island 2
15. Super Mario Bros. Wonder
16. Final Fantasy XVI
17. Street Fighter 6
18. FIFA 23
19. Elden Ring
20. Remnant II
In terms of game sales in November, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 was the best-selling game, followed by Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and Hogwarts Legacy, which saw an increase in sales due to the release of the Nintendo Switch version. The report does not provide specific sales figures for each game, nor does it clearly indicate how much Call of Duty is trailing behind Hogwarts Legacy. Therefore, we will have to wait for the sales results in December to determine if Hogwarts Legacy will claim the top spot for this year.
TLDR: Hogwarts Legacy has the potential to become the best-selling game in the US market this year, surpassing Call of Duty. The top 20 best-selling games include titles such as Diablo IV, Resident Evil 4, and FIFA 23. In November, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 was the best-selling game, followed by Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and Hogwarts Legacy, which saw increased sales with the release of the Nintendo Switch version.
