Most popular Xbox games — Fortnite leads the charge into the new year Our latest chart shows the most popular Xbox games for the week ending December 31. Which games did people play to see out the end of 2023?Ian Stokes Published 02 Jan 2024 FollowtopicsChartXbox Series X|SIan Stokes Here is the top 40 Xbox Gameplay Chart for the week ending December 31, 2023.The final week of 2023 was mostly business as usual, which makes sense given the lack of new releases over the holidays. Fortnite holds onto the top spot, and the rest of the top nine is identical to last week, with one small exception as Rainbow Six Siege and Rocket League swapped places.The Finals continues its strong performance since launching at the start of December, holding onto ninth place. Forza Horizon 5 slipstreamed its way into last spot in the top ten, while Halo Infinite tumbled down a few spots to twelfth place. Meanwhile the mainline Forza Motorsport took a slow pit stop and dropped from 12th to 19th.Further down the list, Sea of Stars and Hogwarts Legacy reappeared in the list — maybe off the back of their appearance in the GOTY tournament that we ran, or maybe because the holidays are a great time to start a massive RPG. Call of Duty: Black Ops II also sneaks back onto the list as it likes to do on occasion.We're looking forward to 2024 now — let's hope that the new year brings us some great new games to fill our time, and our gameplay charts, with. The upcoming Game Pass games list is anything to go by, we're in for a great year.PositionGamePublisherLast week1 FortniteEpic Games12 Call of DutyActivision23 Grand Theft Auto VRockstar Games34 MinecraftXbox Game Studios45 ROBLOXRoblox56 EA SPORTS FC 24Electronic Arts67 Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six SiegeUbisoft88 Rocket LeaguePsyonix79 THE FINALSEmbark Studios910 Forza Horizon 5Xbox Game Studios1411 Overwatch 2Blizzard Entertainment1112 Halo InfiniteXbox Game Studios1013 Destiny 2Bungie1314 Baldur's Gate 3Larian Studios1715 Apex LegendsElectronic Arts1516 Madden NFL 24Electronic Arts1817 Far Cry 6Ubisoft1618 NBA 2K242K Games2019 Forza MotorsportXbox Game Studios1220 Red Dead Redemption 2Rockstar Games2121 StarfieldBethesda Softworks1922 FIFA 23Electronic Arts2223 Halo: The Master Chief CollectionXbox Game Studios2524 Cyberpunk 2077CD Projekt2625 Sea of ThievesXbox Game Studios2426 Goat Simulator 3Coffee Stain Studios2327 Sea of StarsSabotage StudioRE28 Fall GuysEpic Games3129 PUBG: BattlegroundsKRAFTON2830 Diablo IVBlizzard Entertainment2931 Hogwarts LegacyWarner Bros.
