Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and PS5 Top January US Charts, Switch 2 Still Carries Hardware Spending
January 2026 was a quiet month for U.S. video‑game sales, but Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 reclaimed the top spot on the software chart. The PlayStation 5 led hardware unit and dollar sales, while Nintendo’s Switch 2 generated the most hardware spending at $248 million, a 16% year‑over‑year increase. That spending surge offset steep declines for the PS5 (‑17%), Xbox Series (‑27%) and the original Switch (‑79%). Only one new title, Code Vein II, entered the top‑20, and Final Fantasy VII Remake vaulted back into the top ten after its multi‑platform launch.
