Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is seeing a dynamic shift in the European gaming market. The game, released a little over two weeks ago, initially surged to the top of the EU sales charts. However, recent reports suggest that it has slipped from its leading position in its second week. Meanwhile, Black Friday sales have revived interest in several older games, bringing them back into the spotlight.
Sales Shake-Up in the Gaming Charts
In its debut week, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 captured the number one spot, despite falling 63% behind Battlefield 6 in terms of sales. However, from November 17-23, it dropped to the second position, overtaken by EA Sports FC 26 in both revenue and units sold. Battlefield 6 maintained its presence in the top five, securing the third spot behind Black Ops 7.
Impact of Black Friday Sales
The Black Friday rush has also affected the charts, with games like Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and It Takes Two re-emerging due to promotional discounts. Kirby Air Riders barely made it onto the revenue list, securing the tenth spot among newly released games. Other recent titles like Anno 117: Pax Romana and Pokémon Legends Z-A sustained their positions within the top ten.
