Here are the top 10 new titles in terms of revenue:
- Mafia: The Old Country (August 7) – $18.8 million
- Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater (August 28) – $14.9 million
- Titan Quest 2 (August 1) – $9.4 million

- Demon Slayer – Kimetsu No Yaiba – The Hinokami Chronicles 2 (August 5) – $2.6 million
- The Bazaar (August 14) – $2.2 million

It's nice to see the indie hit Is This Seat Taken? among such giants.
The overall, not new, top-selling paid games in August paint a different picture. Co-op game PEAK is at its peak here with 3.7 million copies sold, leaving the next contender, Mage Arena, far behind with its 1.2 million. Then we have Cyberpunk 2077, Battlefield 2042, and Battlefield 6:
The top 10-grossing games, including F2P titles, will not surprise you: Counter-Strike 2 is not going to give up its first place with $154.8 million to PUBG, Battlefield 6, Apex Legends, or anyone else.
In the world of consoles, EA Sports Madden NFL 2026 is on top for both Xbox and PlayStation by units sold. You can find more information in GameDiscoverCo's report.
