The November 2017 NPD report is in and there’s nothing negative to report this month.

Both Sony and Microsoft had wins in November 2017. The PS4 was the best-selling platform in terms of units sold, and as previously reported, Sony shifted more PS4s in November 2017 than in any other month during the console’s lifetime. The PS4 is the year’s best-selling console to date.

Meanwhile, the higher price of the Xbox One X saw Microsoft bring in the most dollars in hardware spend this month. Putting the competition aside, it was also Xbox One’s best November for unit sales ever

No comment on Switch this month, ending a run of dominance from Nintendo – but we didn’t hear anything negative either, so we can probably assume it’s still ticking away nicely as we move into the holidays.

November 2017 NPD Software and charts
As ever, Activision’s annual cash cow gave plenty of milk and moo; Call of Duty: WW2 was the bestselling game of November, and also immediately outsold every game of 2017 and the past 12 months. It does this every year – Call of Duty is the most lucrative franchise in the NPD’s history.

Star Wars Battlefront 2 came in second place, as you’d expect from that brand and in spite of the microtransaction scandal. The NPD didn’t have anything to say on the topic, preferring to turn its attention to Assassin’s Creed: Origins, now in its second month but coming in at third anyway. Analyst Mat Piscatella said Origins has “generated the highest consumer spend for an Assassin’s Creed franchise release since 2013’s Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag”, so it’s safe to say that stabbing is back.

We saw big gains in racing, shooter and sports games through November, which feels like Black Friday spending to me. Check out the full charts below. As ever, titles marked with an asterisk do not include digital sales, and those with a double asterisk do not include sales through Battle.net.
