2025’s best-sellers
The latest Circana monthly sales report for video games in the US has been released, providing an updated look at 2025’s best-selling games so far in the US. This data runs through the beginning of August.
Monster Hunter Wilds remains the No. 1 overall best-selling game of the year, with Oblivion Remastered holding steady at No. 2 A new entry, College Football 26, ranked No. 3 for the month. Black Ops 6 and MLB The Show 25 rounded out the top five best-sellers.
Other new entries to rank inside the top 20 list this month included the EA Sports MVP Bundle (No. 12) and Nintendo’s Donkey Kong Bananza for Switch 2 (No. 20).
There are some key caveats to be aware of. This list includes physical and digital sales data, but not from every publisher. For example, Nintendo does not share digital sales data for any game released on its platforms. Also of note is that the list is ranked on dollar sales, not unit sales. The list also does not include revenue from sales of any add-ons for games, nor does it account for popularity on a service like Game Pass.
The reporting period below covers January 5, 2025 through August 2, 2025. Read on to see the top 20 best-selling games so far this year in the US.
