CoD: Ghosts the 'most played' multiplayer game on Xbox One & PS4

4.6
Call of Duty: Ghosts is the most-played online multiplayer game on Xbox One globally.

So reported Activision in an announcement on Tuesday, citing Microsoft as the source of its metrics. The firm also claimed the title is the "most played PS4 game" in North America, again citing platform holder Sony.

Activision recently said that Call of Duty: Ghosts was the best-selling PS4 game "in retail sales" according specifically to sales at retail chains Best Buy, GameStop, Target and Walmart.

The new announcement on Tuesday made identical claims regarding the Xbox One version at those same specific retailers.

Once again, the firm held off releasing specific sales figures for the title.

"Around the globe, Call of Duty: Ghosts is leading the next generation. It's the #1 selling title at key retailers and it's also the most played game on Xbox One and PS4 globally," said Activision CEO Eric Hirshberg.

"As we've said before, we've got the best community of fans in the world, and we're thrilled they're coming with us to the next generation."

The company said earlier this month that retailers spent over $1 billion worldwide to secure Call of Duty: Ghosts stock for launch day. While Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick said it was "too early to assess" sell-through to consumers, he suggested the game's release came at a time "when the franchise has never been more popular".

This is disappointing as CoD is a game that the developers take very little effort to produce where as games like GTA, Fallout, Elder Scrolls etc take years to produce. I hope this CoD tred dies out soon and these CoD gamers can be introduced to some of the finer games on offer today, especially for next gen. Buying CoD on next gen is ridiculous.

I can see why it is the most played, but there will be more great games to come soon which could change this.

United501 Who cares, ghosts is a piece of crap compared to BF4 on next-gen.



Then how come it has more players than BF4?? Just cause you suck at the game doesn't mean it sucks in general you scrub..


Cod is garbage compare to bf4 kid im sorry. it has more players than bf4 because of the history of it, mw, mw2, and mw3 were ok, but ghost is ....blah. in the end the multi player is the same thing. i have both bf4 and cod for XO. Bf4 is simply more impressive as a next gen Game.

Honestly they are completely different games. In my opinion ghosts is better for multiplayer than bf4 on xbox one. I have tried both and I have enjoyed ghosts more. I have tried bf4 a few times trying to get used to it but am not really a fan of the multiplayer. I will say that the campaign is great though.

Ghosts is ********. I bought it at launch and only played it for about a week until it got boring. I went back to the good call of duty games like black ops


you know BF4 played no different from BF3 in my opinion and the gameplay was rather dull

That really isn't a surprise to me. I haven't play much of Ghosts on my Xbox One.

I've mainly been playing Battlefield 4.
