Battlefield 6 Pre-Order Numbers onโข Steam Signal Potential Challenge to Call of Duty Dominance
Strong pre-order figures โfor the upcoming โข Battlefield 6 on Steam suggest the title could pose aโ significant challengeโค toโข the long-held market superiority ofโฃ Call of Duty, especially Black Ops 7. While Callโ of Duty: โฃInfiniteโข Warfare โค previously held a lead in US turnover,โข the gap between competing shooter franchises has frequently enoughโค been substantial.
Theโ initial Steam pre-order data for Battlefield 6 โrepresents onyl a portion of the overall picture,as both Battlefield and Call of Duty maintain a strong presence on consoles,where comparative data is less accessible. โSales through choice PC launchers like โEA’s app, Epic Games, and COD HQ further complicate a complete โฃassessment of player base size.
Black Ops 7 also benefits from inclusion in Xbox Gameโ Pass, though recentโ price increases to the subscription service-with access to day-one releases now requiring โคthe more expensive Ultimate tier-may influence player counts, potentially driving some subscribers toโ purchase theโ game outright following the โprice hike.
