Football Manager 26 Dominates EU Sales
Football Manager 26 has taken the top spot in Europe’s sales charts for the week of November 2-9, overtaking the previous leader, Battlefield 6. This milestone is notable because it’s not just a triumph for SEGA and Sports Interactive following the cancellation of Football Manager 25, but it’s also the largest launch in the history of GSD’s sales chart tracking, which began in 2017.
Strong Sales Despite Player Discontent
Even though Football Manager 26 has achieved remarkable commercial success, player feedback is less than favorable. The game is currently receiving ‘Mostly Negative’ reviews on its Steam page. Despite the negative reviews, Football Manager 26 tops the EU sales charts both in units sold and revenue. Meanwhile, Battlefield 6 remains a strong contender, holding the number two spot in both revenue and units sold. EA Sports FC 26 follows closely, maintaining its strong position in prior weeks.
Other Contenders and Noteworthy Games
Pokémon Legends Z-A and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment also feature prominently, with slight differences in their positions on unit and revenue charts. Ghost of Yotei and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 are notable for their entries, particularly due to Kingdom Come’s free trial weekend and newly released DLC drawing players back.
