2015 is over, and it’s time to count the money the gaming industry made.
New video games sold at U.S. retailers made $13.1 billion for the second year in a row. That was thanks to strong releases for the new systems while the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 fall into irrelevancy.
The 10 best-selling games of the year 2015.
1. Call of Duty: Black Ops III (Xbox One, PS4, 360, PS3, PC)
2. Madden NFL 16 (PS4, Xbox One, 360, PS3)
3. Fallout 4 (PS4, Xbox One, PC)
4. Star Wars: Battlefront (Xbox One, PS4, PC)
5. Grand Theft Auto V (PS4, Xbox One) 360, PS3, PC)
6. NBA 2K16 (PS4, Xbox One, 360, PS3)
7. Minecraft (360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4)
8. FIFA 16 (PS4, Xbox One, 360, PS3)
9. Mortal Kombat X (PS4, Xbox One)
10. Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (Xbox One, PS4, 360, PS3, PC)
It’s not a surprise that, once again, Call of Duty is one of the top-selling games of the year. The franchise was the biggest breakout hit of last generation, and nothing has really unseated it so far on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Likewise, it doesn’t shock anyone that Fallout 4 is near the top of this list. Bethesda games are almost always instant blockbusters, and gamers had a lot of pent-up demand for this one. But it couldn’t outperform Madden, which is always in the top 3.
Star Wars made it into the top 5, and it even sold better on the Xbox One than on PlayStation 4. That was probably partially because of the pack-in deal with the PS4; those copies don’t count toward this list.
Finally, this list shows that while familiar franchises sell — FIFA, Minecraft, Mortal Kombat — you don’t see Assassin’s Creed or Need For Speed. That might mean that it’s possible that fans are punishing those games for a perceived lack of quality in previous releases.

December 2015 NPD: Call of Duty, Star Wars, Fallout end the year strong
December was strong for some of the year’s biggest releases.
New video games sold at U.S. retailers made $3.22 billion last month, according to industry-tracking firm The NPD Group. That’s down 1 percent from $3.26 billion in 2014. Both hardware and software sales were down — although, as usual, that was likely primarily from sluggish revenues from Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Accessories, which includes Amiibo, Lego Dimensions, and more, grew by 10 percent.
“For December 2015, the 6 percent decrease in hardware sales versus December 2014 was driven by a 71 percent drop in hardware,” NPD analyst Liam Callahan explained. “As well as the 32 percent decrease in portable hardware.”
All of that offset a 4 percent increase in spending on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Wii U.
That positive trend for the newer systems also held true for software.
“December 2015 was the best month on record for PS4 and Xbox One, and the second-best for the Wii U in terms of new physical software unit sales,” said Callahan. “This also meant that it was the best month of total eighth generation new physical software sales.”
As always, we need to point out that NPD does not track everything in gaming. It does not include used games or digital sales in these figures. It also doesn’t have any data from countries outside of the United States. With that in mind, you should take this information as a decent understanding of the way a bigger and more dynamic market works.
December, as always, belonged to Call of Duty. The franchise is on a seven-year streak of dominating these charts with only Grand Theft Auto V’s original 2013 release ever matching it. And it’s here yet again.
Star Wars, however, is not usually here. But EA’s Battlefront got an obvious boost from the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which is the top-grossing film in U.S. history.
The rest of the list is Fallout 4, sports games, and beloved favorites like GTA V and Minecraft. Clearly, people were scooping up recognizable franchises in December as gifts or to go with their new systems.
The most interesting thing about this list is that Call of Duty and Star Wars both sold better on Xbox One than on PlayStation 4. This makes it seem like that system still has a huge, game-buying audience — even if it can’t quite keep up with the PS4 in terms of raw hardware numbers.
Hardware
The PlayStation 4 outsold Xbox One and Wii U in December. That makes it the best-selling system of the year by a wide margin..
NPD’s Callahan explained that both Microsoft and Sony are doing well.
“After 26 months of sales, the combined cumulative sales of Xbox One and PS4 exceeds the 26 month total of the PS3 and Xbox 360 by 47 percent,” said Callahan. “The lead from the prior generation has expanded due to the strong PS4 and Xbox One 2015 holiday, going from 38 percent by the end of October, growing to 47 percent by the end of November, and maintaining 47 percent higher sales by the end of December.”

Sony je ofdi dobro pogodio sa SW-om i marketingom istog. Prodano je nekih 600k PS4 SW konzola u prosincu 2015. Gledajući samo fizičke kopije, Battlefront samostalno u prosincu i godišnje bolje prodao na Xboneu, no, ako se dodaju PS4 SW bundleovi, onda je u prosincu i godišnje PS4 verzija ispred i to poprilično.

- iznenađujuće je vidjeti COD : AW na godišnjoj listi i Mortal Kombat X, dok recimo nema Batmana koji je jako dobro prošao u US. Al dobro, Ameri imaju svoj ukus.
- a još je više iznenađujuće da nema jedan Halo u top 10 u prosincu i na godišnjoj listi, tj. Halo 5. Halo 5 se u 2 mj. nije uspio prodati u 2 milje primjeraka u fizičkim kopijama, dok je to jednom Halo 3 sa manjom bazom korisnika uspjelo u mjesec dana se prodati u 3.3 milje primjeraka u US.
- ovo je prvi puta da jedan Halo se nije uspio plasirati na godišnjoj listi. Sve prijašnje ( izuzev prvog Haloa i RTS-a Halo Wars, jel ) Halo igre su bile na godišnjoj listi :
2004. Halo 2 bio 2. na godišnjoj listi,

Sony PR :
“As we reflect on an amazing year, we want to thank fans and partners for making PlayStation 4 the top selling console in December and in 2015. PS4 also had the strongest third-party software sales in 2015 in the U.S., according to NPD.
The momentum and enthusiasm for the platform continued throughout the year, resulting in cumulative sales of more than 35.9 million since the launch of PS4. During the holiday season alone, more than 5.7 million PS4s and 35 million PS4 games were sold through to consumers worldwide. We look forward to another great year and bringing an extensive portfolio of games from our publisher partners and SCE Worldwide Studios to fans in 2016.”
Microsoft PR :
“Thanks to our fans, continued support for the most critically-acclaimed holiday lineup of exclusives in Xbox history made December 2015 the best month yet for Xbox Live global engagement and Xbox One sales in the U.S. The total number of hours spent gaming on Xbox One worldwide nearly doubled compared to December 2014 and Xbox One exclusive game sales in the U.S. between July and December 2015 were up 61 percent compared to the same period in 2014. Revenue from Xbox Store’s Countdown, the biggest Xbox Store sale ever, broke records with 69 percent growth year-over-year when compared to results from last year’s sale. Xbox One is the best place for gamers and the only console that has all top 10 best-selling titles of this generation that launched in 2015.”
Što ovo znači? MS će sve pokušati izokrenuti samo da izgleda dobro. To u biti je bit PR-a.
