Gaming News This iconic Xbox FPS just released is outselling the competition!
This FPS continues to be a hit, with exceptional performance on Steam and impressive sales on console, but especially on Playstation
A very good FPS
A few weeks ago, FPS players and fans were able to discover Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, the new entry in the famous franchise that has conquered everyone. Take a look at our review at JV, but as you’ll see, the single player campaign is extremely successful and remains one of the best in recent years. The multiplayer is not to be outdone and is clearly a gem, especially with its iconic Zombie mode, which is one of the strengths of this software. Apparently a lot of people jumped on the Activision title to find out. However, you will see that the public is not the same on PC than on PlayStation or Xbox. Sales is completely different, especially at Microsoft.
Black Ops 6 works everywhere
Unsurprisingly, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 made a monumental breakthrough on Steam. According to SteamDB data, more than 360,000 people signed up in the first weekend. It’s a lot better than when the unloved Modern Warfare 3 came out and is about to of 190,000 people. It also surpasses the stats of Modern Warfare 2 and its 263,000 fansbut falls short of the untouchable Warzone 2. The latter recorded slightly less than 500,000 connected and its community remains very strong. It’s still an excellent FPS result, but things are a little different on console. As Microsoft expected, Black Ops 6 didn’t leave such a good impression on Xbox, but that’s partly because it was available on GamePass from day one. However, this had the consequenceWe are reducing physical sales by almost 10%particularly in the UK. On the PlayStation side, however, the software is settling in and appears to be well established, as this week’s sales show.
As revealed by SELL (Leisure Software Publishers Union) With the top 5 physical video game sales this week, Black Ops 6 and its various editions completely dominate the podium. He even pays the luxury of taking three places. More precisely, it is the best-selling game on all consoles thanks to its PS5 version, while its PS4 version is in third place. The only thing standing in the way is Mario Jamboree on Nintendo Switch. In fourth place we find EA Sports 25also on the PlayStation 5, and finally we find Black Ops 6, but this time on the Xbox Series. So we could think that Sony is destroying the competitionbut remember: no digital edition is taken into account here, but rather the Microsoft offer GamePass remains a formidable competition for publishers and should not be taken lightly.
