SuperData Arcade has shared its monthly report, stating that Battlefield V and Fallout 76 launches fail to meet franchise benchmarks. Superdata estimates that Battlefield V and Fallout 76 sold 1.9 million and 1.4 million digital units, respectively, across console and PC at launch. Both are down from Battlefield 1 and Fallout 4.
Furthermore, SuperData claims that Rainbow Six Siege shows signs of fatigue. Ubisoft’s popular FPS title has had a better-than-expected performance throughout most of 2018. However, additional content revenue declined 33% in November, the game’s biggest decline to date, and follows a decline in October as well.
SuperData also claimed that Destiny 2?s “Forsaken” boost was short lived. SuperData estimates additional content revenue for Destiny 2 dropped 63% year-over-year. Overall, engagement and monetization seem to have reverted back to the same levels last seen before the launch of the “Forsaken” DLC in September.
As always, here are the world’s most popular digital games across PC, console and mobile for August 2018.

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

I think the problem is that these games weren’t woke enough. If they were more woke maybe they’d have done better because they’d have been on the right side of history or something. At least this is what I’m told.
To quote my comment from yesterday,
“Fallout 76 vs. Battlefield V.
The gift that keeps on giving as they duke it out to see which can fail the hardest!”
Let’s see the boneheaded Fallout 76 fanboys spit the dummy at SuperData like they did at YouTubers. As for Battlefield V then EA DICE are evidently the “uneducated” ones. ?
i need help please
By the way, on an off topic note, I just wanted to WISH the entire DSOG @staff, and the whole community/readers MERRY XMas, and a very Happy New Year 2019.
May this Holiday season sparkle and shine ! Happy Gaming. Keep up the good work here on dsog, @JOHN.

Oh, come on now @7thGuest2.0. Don’t be such a despicable human being.

Damn, “Metal Messiah” just deleted his seasons greetings comment as well…..hope this makes u feel happy now !
Keep posting garbage/nonsense. It’s not going to do you any good though. There is limit and time to troll, have fun, or just be sarcastic.
Not always…
What did he say?
Oh, it was just an ‘Xmas’ and ‘Happy new Year’ WISH from his side to the entire DSOG staff and forum readers, with seasons greetings from his side.
Nothing else.
One is a propaganda machine, the other is a broken lazy abomination. That’s nice to see sometimes good news in this cr*p industry.

The industry is not crap, just AAA studios seem to be atm.
Looking at that list, the data must be including micro transactions also.
The one time you wish EA could buy a company and close them down.
oh no …. poor EA ….. well time for Microtransactions
Fallout 76 sold horribly on pc….I AM SO PROUD OF THIS COMMUNITY.
Its very sad watching single player games only have very little space (or maybe non existent?) to be listed as top 10 most popular pc games title…smh
N-no you just hate women, minorities and online play.
You’re just uneducated
When you’re at the top, you do. Just not so good.

Bethesda sh*t on the Fallout franchise and they can’t fix it.
