Most popular Xbox games — Space Marine 2 cracks top 40 ahead of full launch

Enough Xbox players have been unlocking Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 achievements early to propel the game into 35th on our latest Xbox Gameplay Chart — not bad going for a game that only launches in full today! We also see a couple of wins for games that left our list of upcoming Game Pass games last week, including Age of Mythology: Retold, which has almost made it into the top ten.The top ten haven’t budged an inch, leaving the usual suspects firmly in place this week. Age of Mythology: Retold almost cracked it, but has ultimately settled in 11th, and just below that in 15th is Star Trucker, yet another game that launched into Xbox Game Pass last week. Further down, Star Wars Outlaws has climbed one more spot to 18th — Ubisoft has confirmed that it’s reworking Outlaws’ “punishing” stealth sections, so it may climb further still. Halo Infinite has also jumped up a spot, while Mafia: Definitive Edition continues its expected decline. In at 22nd is our next Gameplay Chart debut, NBA 2K25, which launched last week, followed by many games hopping up and down the list until we get to Core Keeper and then Atlas Fallen, both of which are still dropping down the chart after enjoying some exposure from Game Pass.In 35th is the aforementioned Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, which has only been available for owners of the game’s Gold and Ultra Editions so far. It launches in full today, so it’ll be interesting to see how high it can climb by next week’s chart — check out our Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 review for our thoughts on Saber’s third-person shooter. Then in 39th, for the first time since launching earlier this year, Expeditions: A Mudrunner Game makes its Gameplay Chart debut, thanks to its newfound popularity via Xbox Game Pass.
