As a seasoned gamer with over two decades under my belt, I can confidently say that July 2024 was a golden era for video games. The top 20 best-selling games of the month were nothing short of spectacular, boasting an impressive mix of old favorites and fresh newcomers.


July proved to be an extraordinary period for the video game industry, as a total of 20 games dominated the sales charts throughout the dynamic month. The latest statistics have been released, highlighting the top 20 most successful games sold in July. Notably, well-established series such as Call of Duty, UFC, and Tekken graced this list, but it was not just the heavyweights that made an appearance – unexpected titles also claimed their spots. Interestingly, Nintendo found a place on the list more than once.

2024 has been an amazing summer for gamers like me, as we’ve been treated to updates on some truly exciting projects in the video game industry. Just recently, I got a sneak peek at Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, the latest installment in Activision’s long-running first-person shooter series. Additionally, MachineGames and Bethesda unveiled Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, another highly anticipated title. With both games set to hit the market later this year, they’re bound to make a big impact. However, even before these releases, summer 2024 has been packed with great titles. In fact, a newly released list ranks July as one of the top months for gaming, with the top 20 games of the month being quite a treat!

As a long-time gaming enthusiast and someone who has followed the evolution of sports video games for years, I am thrilled to share my insights based on the latest sales numbers reported by Circana executive director Mat Piscatella. The fact that the top two spots in July 2024 are occupied by sports games is a testament to the enduring popularity of these genres among gamers like myself.
