PS5 And PS4's Most-Downloaded Games Of 2025 Revealed, Including A Call Of Duty Surprise - GameSpot

Sports games ruled PlayStation Store downloads in 2025. NBA 2K26 topped the PS5 chart in the US/Canada, while EA Sports FC 26 led in Europe, underscoring a year dominated by sports titles.

The year's Call of Duty surprise: Black Ops 7 slipped to No. 7 in both regions, a notable drop from Black Ops 6's 2024 dominance. Meanwhile, Battlefield 6 surged—No. 2 in North America and No. 5 in Europe. Circana even had it as 2025's best-selling game through November, though this ranking only covers PlayStation Store downloads (not other platforms).

PS5 highlights included evergreen hits Grand Theft Auto V and Minecraft, plus sports staples like Madden NFL 26, College Football 26, and MLB The Show 25. Fresh faces—Arc Raiders, Ghost of Yōtei, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33—also cracked the top 20, alongside Ready or Not and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered.

On PS4, Red Dead Redemption 2 reclaimed No. 1 in both territories, with GTA V and Minecraft continuing to chart highly. Legacy favorites such as Star Wars Battlefront 2, Batman: Arkham Knight, Need for Speed Heat, and A Way Out also earned spots.

PSVR2 saw Beat Saber repeat as the top download in the US/Canada and Europe, joined by Alien: Rogue Incursion VR, Creed: Rise to Glory – Championship Edition, Job Simulator, and Metro Awakening.

In free-to-play, Fortnite remained the runaway leader across both regions, with Roblox, Call of Duty: Warzone, Rocket League, Battlefield REDSEC, and Marvel Rivals rounding out the charts.
