NBA 2K20 in action

NBA 2K20 is already the best-selling game of 2019 in the U.S.

NBA 2K20 came out on September 6 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC, but the sports game is already the U.S.’s best-selling title of 2019. This is according to industry-tracking firm The NPD Group’s report on U.S. gaming sales for September 2019.

Yes, NBA 2K20 was the top seller for the month, but it’s more amazing that it immediately became the No. 1 game of the year. Mortal Kombat 11 is at the No. 2 spot, followed by Borderlands 3 at No. 3 (it also released in September).
