Gunfire Games’ Remnant II topped the list of best-selling games this July, according to industry-tracking firm Circana. The soulslike shooter joined Steam’s best-seller list shortly after it debuted in July. Other July releases that managed to snag a place in the top 20 include Pikmin 4 and Exoprimal, the latter despite its debut on Xbox Game Pass. Older Call of Duty games are also making a resurgence.
