Microsoft has unveiled the best-selling Xbox games featured in its ongoing Black Friday 2024 sale, and the list highlights some of the most attractive deals available right now. Not surprisingly, these popular titles give gamers a glimpse into the outstanding bargains being offered as part of this promotion.
The buzz surrounding Xbox’s Black Friday 2024 deals began in mid-November, with discounts initially revealed to last through Cyber Monday. Throughout the latter half of November, enticing new game discounts have been continually popping up on Microsoft’s digital store, keeping the excitement alive for gamers.
For those curious about which titles are currently claiming the top spots, the “Top Paid” section of the Microsoft Store offers some insights. According to Pure Xbox, the leading trio of best-selling premium Xbox games in the U.S. is NBA 2K25, followed by EA Sports Madden NFL 25, and finally EA Sports FC 25. These games are all seeing price cuts of at least 50% as part of the Xbox Black Friday 2024 Deals promotion. Combined, these discounts add up to over $100 in savings.
When diving deeper into the top-selling games during this sale, it’s evident that sports titles continue to dominate. Among the top ten best-sellers, six are sports-related. The only exception within the top five, apart from sports genres, is Red Dead Redemption 2, a game that has established itself as a timeless favorite since Rockstar released it in 2018. With 67 million copies sold as of November 2024, Red Dead Redemption 2’s enduring appeal is undeniable.
Looking at the larger picture of Xbox’s Black Friday offers, Rockstar makes another appearance with GTA 5 securing the sixth position on the sales chart. The list is rounded out by Hogwarts Legacy, Halo: The Master Chief Collection, MLB The Show 24, and WWE 2K24. MLB The Show 24 is a standout due to its substantial price drop, now available for just $10.49, an impressive 85% markdown. Overall, the top ten games are offering a combined savings of $377.10.
These compelling deals are expected to last until Cyber Monday, on December 2. Many of the highlights from the recent Xbox Halloween 2024 sale have returned for this Black Friday event, ensuring gamers have ample opportunity to snag their favorite titles at a bargain.
