Fortnite regained the top spot on Newzoo’s overall revenue and engagement charts in December.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2/3/Warzone/Black Ops 6 dropped to #3 on the revenue charts and #4 for monthly active users.
Focusing on the revenue charts, Path of Exile 3 ranked #5 during its release month, followed by newcomer Marvel Rivals at #6.
A trio of RPGs returned to the Top 20 following the Christmas discounts, with Hogwarts Legacy at No. 13, Cyberpunk 2077 at No. 17, and Baldur’s Gate 3 at No. 19.
On the individual platform charts, Indiana Jones and Great Circle launched at #10 on PC and #13 on Xbox. Gran Turismo 7 rose from 39th to 14th place on PlayStation following its 25th anniversary celebrations.
In terms of player engagement, Marvel Rivals placed third after displacing other popular live service titles. Overwatch 2 saw the biggest drop in terms of MAU, falling from 9th to 12th place.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle placed 17th despite not being available on PlayStation. Newzoo attributed this increase in engagement to the game launching on day one on Xbox game Pass.
