Jul 2024 USA Sales: College Football Immediately Overtakes Helldivers 2 as Best-Selling Game This Year 1

Helldivers 2 has been reigning supreme as the USA's top-selling game of 2024, but just like that, it's now playing second fiddle. EA Sports College Football 25 has trumped Sony's sci-fi co-op shooter, touching down in first place on July's software chart and now the year's best-selling title. According to analyst Mat Piscatella, the game's launch month dollar sales have more than tripled the lifetime sales of the previous biggest college football game, NCAA Football 07. It's a smash hit, basically.

Aside from that, the USA's top 20 games are broadly familiar, with one or two change-ups. Tekken 8 moves up from 30th to 14th, The Crew Motorfest moves from 37th to 19th, and Rainbow Six Siege is also up, moving from 21st to 18th.

PS5 retains its top spot in the hardware chart once again, coming number one in both units and dollar sales. Xbox Series takes second on both counts. In terms of accessories, PS Portal continues to do tremendously well for Sony, being July's best-selling accessory in terms of dollar sales. The best-selling accessory units-wise is the Midnight Black DualSense controller.
