The PlayStation 5 was the best-selling console in the US in November 2023 in terms of units sold and dollar sales, according to figures from Circana (formerly The NPD Group). Circana includes the dates for the four week period of October 29 to November 25.
Activision has not launched the Warzone and Modern Warfare 3 Gundam collab cosmetics, and also freebie skins in celebration of Pride month.
Nice to have inclusivity. Happy Pride Month to the Puerto Rican community & the LGBTQ community here in NYC.
Since launching in October 2023, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 has sold 11 million copies.
With a game called Spider-Man and made by Insomniac………..is anyone really surprised??? Congrats to them on their continued excellence in game crafting.
Captain Price's fate at the end of 2011's Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 could've been very different, as this new post-credits scene reveals.
Spider-Man 2 is still selling well at No. 2. :)
>20% drop in all 3 consoles YoY
Comparing to last year with ~20% drop estimates are:
PS5 ~1 million
XSX/S ~584k
Switch ~584k (less than Xbox)
Definite sign that these systems need a price cut. The discounts ($350 XSX etc) didnt seem to go into effect until after this tracking period. PS5 didnt have any real discount and was just bundling games.
Playstation may have a hard time hitting 25M sold unless December is huge.
This might easily be Xbox's worst November since the original Xbox
Switch can at least say its a 7 year old system and last November they launched Pokemon scarlet/violet
Overall this was a much worse month than anyone expected
The guys at MS must be scratching their heads, they just paid tens of billions for Activision, highly publicized the purchase and yet they still getting their collective asses handed to them. What could they be doing wrong? I mean gamepass, check. Buying up the industry, check. Discounted the Series consoles, check (they have been discounted at various retailers for a long time before the MS discount). Third party publisher here we come. Bookmark this post; I told you so.
Well it is the system with exclusives to draw the gamer in and also being backwards compatible with the PS4 there is also a library of PS4 exclusives as well.
The fact that Spider-man 2 is now selling more units than freakin Madden in NA is not talked about enough.
Another rarity is SM Wonders selling less than Dead Island 2 ytd. Maybe with digital numbers, it's closer to top 10, but for it to barely be in the top 15 is a little shocking to me.
