Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 European Launch Sales Performance

The launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 in Europe has underperformed significantly, with opening week sales figures trailing behind major competitors.

  • Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 experienced a weak European launch, with opening week sales 63% lower than Battlefield 6's October debut and over 50% lower than last year's Black Ops 6.
  • The sales data for Black Ops 7 excludes Game Pass subscriptions, meaning the actual player count is likely higher than the reported unit sales figures.
  • Ubisoft's new release, Anno 117: Pax Romana, performed strongly, selling approximately 2.5 times more units at launch than the 2019 title Anno 1800.
