November was a fairly busy month for releases with the likes of Forza Horizon 5 and Shin Megami Tensei 5 releasing to great fanfare (while Battlefield 2042 received abject hate). The NPD Group’s Mat Piscatella has provided information on Twitter for each title’s sales in US for November, confirming that Battlefield 2042 was the number 2 selling game (Call of Duty: Vanguard took the top spot).
It ranks as the sixth best-selling game of the year to date and was also the second best-selling title for the month on PlayStation and Xbox. Forza Horizon 5 ranked as the fourth best-selling game of the month and the third-best selling title on Xbox platforms. However, it set a new launch month sales record for the franchise, beating out previous Forza Horizon and Forza Motorsport titles.
Shin Megami Tensei 5 also set a record, reaching the highest launch month dollar sales for any title in the series’ history. While it was only the 16th best-selling game of November, it still managed to rank in sixth place for Nintendo platforms. Stay tuned for more details on the overall top 20 and hardware sales in the meantime.
