Elden Ring is now topping the new NPD sales charts. Unsurprisingly, the game has now been beating Call of Duty as the most-bought game of the past 12 months.
Mat Piscatella, NPD Executive Director, has shared on the latest reports on Twitter, and said that Elden Ring has repeatedly been the best-selling game of the month, and that the game is also still considered the best-selling game of 2022.
Elden Ring has also been placing first in terms of dollar sales in four of its first five months in the market. It is also now ranked among the top 10 best-selling games in dollar sales ever in the United States.

While Elden Ring is currently the best-selling game of 2022, the game still has five more months of fierce competition.
Two games, in particular, could potentially take the number one spot as the best-selling game of 2022. These games are God of War Ragnarok which is coming out on November 9, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 which is coming out on October 28.
