German Games Charts October 2024: Call of New Entrants

Call of Duty leads the way in October, despite the shooter being included in multiple Game Pass tiers for the first time. Black Ops 6 tops the German games charts, while a total of six newcomers in the top ten have also shaken up the charts.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 takes the lead in the German games sales charts for October 2020, pushing EA Sports FC 25 into second place. Several new releases follow. The 3D fighting game Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero enters the charts at number three, ahead of Super Mario Party Jamboree, which debuts at number four. Dragon Age: The Veilguard, released on the last day of October, made it to number six, while Konami's Silent Hill 2 remake secured seventh place. Life is Strange: Double Exposure debuted at #10, Metaphor: ReFantazio at #13 and Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered at #16. Diablo IV gets a slight boost to 11th place with the release of Vessel of Hatred.

Hogwarts Legacy, Grand Theft Auto V and The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom remain in the top ten. Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II, released by Focus Entertainment in early September, has lost a lot of positions (from 03 to 14). The following games have left the top 20 Astrobot (#04 in September), NBA 2K25 (#08 in September), Age of Mythology: Retold (#09 in September), Star Wars Outlaws (#11 in September) and Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown (#12 in September). The Crew 2 and The Crew Motorfest, which benefited from promotions last month, are also out of the top 20.

Black Myth: Wukong from Game Science is missing from the charts as the publisher does not report sales data to GSD, similar to Larian Studios or Epic Games Publishing.
