"Prior to the release of Battlefield 6 in October and Black Ops 7 in November, industry experts predicted that Black Ops 7 would come out on top. But new data has arrived pointing to Black Ops 7's sales struggles, and now Mat Piscatella of Circana has told IGN that EA's game will likely be the best-seller. It would be just the second time since 2018 that a Call of Duty game would be outsold in the US."
"2024's Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 was the year's best-selling game in the US, and it achieved that despite being the first Call of Duty game to launch into Game Pass. The game reportedly lost out on $300 million in revenue due to Game Pass. Circana's lists are ranked by revenue, not unit sales. Through November 29, Black Ops 7 is the No. 7 best-selling game of 2025 in the US, with Battlefield 6 holding steady at No. 1."
Mat Piscatella of Circana predicts Battlefield 6 is extremely likely to finish 2025 as the top-selling game in the US, overtaking Call of Duty: Black Ops 7. Battlefield 6 launched in October and Black Ops 7 in November, and new sales data indicates Black Ops 7 is underperforming. Circana’s rankings are revenue-based, and Game Pass complicates revenue comparisons because Call of Duty entries can lose direct sales revenue to the service. Through November 29, Battlefield 6 ranks No. 1 for 2025 while Black Ops 7 sits at No. 7. EA reported Battlefield sold seven million at launch, with later reports citing ten million; Activision has not disclosed Black Ops 7 figures.
