Industry-tracking firm, NPD Group, revealed the top 20 best-selling games in the United States for 2021, and the most notable aspect of this list is definitely its familiarity. The list looks a lot like 2020’s, but with some minor changes.
NPD only included games it actively tracks, so titles like Valheim won’t be here. The list is as follows:
