Most popular Xbox games — Destiny 2 soars up while Starfield takes a tumble

Here is the top 40 Xbox Gameplay Chart for the week ending December 3, 2023.It’s not unusual to see the top five remain the same as last week unless there’s been a big new release, but this week’s gameplay chart has almost the whole top ten remaining the same: except for Destiny 2, which has jumped up from 15th to ninth. Destiny’s Season of the Wish has kicked off, but Bungie saw some backlash after the reveal of a new starter pack, prompting the team to remove the starter pack from stores. Starfield, which was in ninth itself last week, has fallen out of the top ten to 14th. Just above is Remnant 2, which reappears in the top 40 at 13th after joining Game Pass, while Lies of P is back in the top 40 after being included in the latest Xbox Game Pass Weekly Quests.Then we have a wave of games falling down the chart, broken up only by Red Dead Redemption 2 hanging on at 21st, and Dead by Daylight moving up to 24th. The first new appearance we have this week is SteamWorld Build at 29th, after the game launched into Game Pass just a few days ago. Rollerdrome makes its debut appearance at 32nd — it joined Game Pass just a few days before SteamWorld Build. Party Animals has taken a big fall from 16th to 33rd, probably as more players move onto new Game Pass additions. Meanwhile, Remnant: From the Ashes is back in the top 40 at 35th — it joined Game Pass on the same day as Remnant 2. This week’s last new appearance is Killer Instinct at 37th.Looking ahead, we have some big new releases almost upon us — Avatar Frontiers of Pandora, for one, is out in just a few days’ time. Then we also have all those upcoming Game Pass games to look forward to, as well as any surprises this week’s The Game Awards event might have for us.Chart compiled using gameplay data from over 2.4 million active Xbox accounts.
