It
seems
Oblivion
Remastered
has
been
a
huge
hit,
as
Mat
Piscatella
of
Circana
(formerly
NPD)
has
named
it
the
best-selling
game
of
April
in
the
US.
In
fact,
April
was
pretty
good
for
Xbox
as
it
claimed
multiple
spots
in
the
chart.
Speaking
on
BlueSky,
Piscatella
delved
into
the
latest
Circana
data
tracking
game
sales
in
the
US.
According
to
the
numbers,
The
Elder
Scrolls
IV:
Oblivion
Remastered
was
the
best-selling
game
across
Xbox,
PlayStation
and
PC
for
the
month
of
April.

Report
(4/6/2025

Piscatella
also
said
that
Oblivion
Remastered
sold
more
units
in
April
than
the
original
game
did
in
15
months.
That’s
enough
to
earn
it
3rd
place
on
the
best-selling
games
of
the
year
so
far,
behind
Monster
Hunter:
Wilds
in
1st
place
and
Assassin’s
Creed:
Shadows
in
2nd.
Xbox’s
success
continued
with
Forza
Horizon
5
jumping
up
from
42nd
in
the
sales
ranking
to
2nd
following
its
release
on
PlayStation
5.
What’s
impressive
about
this
is
that
achieved
this
despite
launching
late
in
April,
giving
it
just
a
few
days
on
sale.
Another
Xbox
game
also
saw
a
big
jump
after
coming
to
PlayStation
5
–
Indiana
Jones
and
the
Great
Circle
went
from
118th
in
March
to
the
6th
spot
in
April.
What
this
also
means
is
that
Microsoft
currently
makes
up
half
of
the
top
ten
best-sellers
for
April,
as
it
also
publishes
Minecraft
(4th)
and
Call
of
Duty:
Black
Ops
6
(7th).
Piscatella
also
pointed
out
that
his
data
shows
Microsoft
made
up
for
5
out
of
the
7
best-selling
games
on
PlayStation
in
April,
a
perfect
demonstration
of
how
much
the
industry
has
changed
in
such
a
short
span
of
time.
