The NPD Group makes the list of the most successful games public during the period between 2010 and 2019. Call of Duty is full.
Grand Theft Auto V has been the best-selling videogame of the last decade in the United States, the consulting group NPD Group has confirmed. The company responsible for monitoring the performance of games and consoles in North America has announced the results of the period between 2010 and 2019, a ranking that leaves the intellectual property Call of Duty as a clear winner.
Because there are ten of the twenty most successful games of this period that are named after the Activision saga, where Treyarch, Sledgehammer Games and Infinity Ward studios have spearheaded the developments of the main deliveries. None of them have managed to overcome the incombustible Rockstar, which with its launch in 2013 has accumulated more than six years among the best sellers of each year.
The favorite games of the American public are undoubtedly the Black Ops line, where only Modern Warfare 3 has managed to take away some prominence. Beyond the war environment of this saga we find Red Dead Redemption 2, one of the most recent in the time of this ranking, which remains with seventh place. In the Top-20 there is no exclusive Microsoft game, although there is one of its own, Minecraft. Nintendo, meanwhile, are Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
The information published by the NPD Group also provides information on the best-selling consoles of the past decade. Although in 2019 the clear dominator has been Nintendo Switch, in the decade between 2010 and 2019, PlayStation 4 was the console that has shipped more units in the United States, a condition that places Sony as the leader of the North American market in that period .
