TL;DR Summary
Circana’s 2025 US software sales data show Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 finishing the year at fifth in dollar sales—the franchise’s lowest position since 2008’s World at War—despite December’s top spot, with Game Pass likely curbing traditional sales and competing titles like Battlefield 6, NBA 2K26, Borderlands 4, and Monster Hunter Wilds outperforming it; Activision denied any drastic rethinking of the series.
