The only exception was the PlayStation 4 PlayStation Store in Europe, where both FIFA 21 and FIFA 20 managed to keep Call of Duty out of the top spots. On the PlayStation 4, both the 2020 entry in the series and 2019’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare managed to stay in the top five. The only first-party release to break into the top-five on the PS4 was Ghost of Tsushima in North America.

The lists for PS5 most downloaded PlayStation Store games in 2020 look a bit more uniform across regions. In both North America and Europe, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War came first, with Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales in second and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla in third.
