As we've mentioned more than once, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is not exactly a critical smash. They've taken so many hits that they've actually apologized for the latest COD not meeting expectations. But we've some hard gameplay data from November and December and the fans are still playing a whole buncha Call of Duty.
Call of Duty HQ is the 2nd most played title on consoles in the US for the week ending Dec.13. Now, I have to mention that HQ combines the stats from Black Ops 6, 7, and Warzone so it's not apples to apples, or hand grenades to hand grenades with Battlefield 6. EA catalogs REDSEC, its battle royale, in the same way, so its numbers are included here as well. But because it must be mentioned, Battlefield 6 is the 7th most-played title. Both are surely noting the progress of Arc Raiders, in the rearview at the 12th position.
Marvel Rivals is the 6th most played on PlayStation, 8th on Xbox. Season 6 looks great and adds Deadpool, so I bet those numbers get a boost really soon. Overwatch 2 is not Top 15, but trust me, this year's updates have it playing better than it has in a long time.
The good news is that no matter what kind of shooter you like to play, there's an option out there for you.
