Recent data from market research firm Circana reveals that many older video games, including perennial favorites like Grand Theft Auto V and Minecraft, continue to dominate sales charts in 2024. Notably, more than a third of the top-selling titles this year are from previous years, illustrating how players remain engaged with long-released games. Factors such as fan bases of annual sports games and major expansions for RPGs like Elden Ring contribute to this trend, while also highlighting a lack of new bestselling Nintendo titles this year.
While annual sports titles like NBA 2K24 and the popularity of Call of Duty maintain their strong presence, perennial favorites like GTA V and Minecraft hook new players.
Remarkably, over one-third of the top 20 best-selling games for 2024 are older titles, indicating that many players continue engaging with these classics long after their release.
