In the second quarter of 2025, Microsoft published six out of the ten top-selling games for PlayStation in the United States
Between April 6 and July 5, 2025, Microsoft published six of the top ten best-selling games on PlayStation, according to sales data. This information was released by Mat Piscatella, Circana's executive director of video game analysis, who used figures based on dollar sales, incorporating both physical and digital copies from participating companies.
The ranking for PlayStation was topped by Bandai Namco's Elden Ring: Nightreign. Following close, Microsoft’s games like Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Minecraft, Doom: The Dark Ages, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion: Remastered, and Forza Horizon 5 secured positions from ninth to second place.
Microsoft also dominated the Xbox platform, where its titles, along with three sports games from Take-Two’s 2K25 series—WWE 2K25, NBA 2K25, and PGA Tour 2K25—formed a considerable part of the top ten list. Elden Ring: Nightreign maintained its top-selling status on Xbox as well.
For Nintendo, Mario Kart World emerged as the leading game after its recent release alongside the Nintendo Switch 2. Despite Nintendo’s strong presence with seven out of ten games, other notable titles included Cyberpunk 2077, Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, and Hogwart's Legacy.
Below are the detailed sales charts for each platform, as reported by Circana.
