Popular Xbox games — November 14th, 2022

By Heidi Nicholas,

Our latest Xbox Gameplay Chart of popular Xbox games shows Vampire Survivors breaking almost into the top 20 just days after arriving for Xbox consoles and Xbox Game Pass.

The top five of our latest Xbox Gameplay Chart hasn't moved since last week — Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II is hanging on to its top spot with Fortnite just below and Overwatch 2 in third, while Minecraft and Grand Theft Auto V remain in fourth and fifth. Halo Infinite has shot up from 14th to sixth after the arrival of its Winter Update Bot Bootcamp has since been removed, although it seems this could possibly be linked to AI issues. Apex Legends has tumbled down three spaces to ninth, while Forza Horizon 5 has just managed to climb back into the top ten this week. There isn't too much movement in the chart until we get to Vampire Survivors at 22nd — it arrived for Xbox consoles and Xbox Game Pass last week. Cyberpunk 2077, meanwhile, has managed to climb six spaces to 25th after a recent patch, but it's a different story for Gunfire Reborn, which has dropped six places to 26th; perhaps as players move onto other Xbox Game Pass additions. Persona 5 Royal continues to fall, dropping two spots to 27th. Just below is Cricket 22, which makes its first appearance at 28th after it was included with the latest Xbox Game Pass Weekly Quests. A Plague Tale: Requiem is presumably also losing players to more recent Xbox Game Pass additions; it has dropped nine spots to 33rd this week. Chivalry 2 has fallen almost as far, dropping seven spots to 35th. Then we have this week's first reappearance with EA Sports UFC 4 at 37th, with Assassin's Creed Odyssey as the second reappearance at 40th — we included Assassin's Creed Odyssey in our list of the best games like God of War on Xbox, so check that out if you're looking for something similar! This week's disappearances are Gotham Knights, Disney Dreamlight Valley, Cooking Simulator, and State of Decay 2: Juggernaut Edition.

Looking ahead, we have several games coming to Game Pass soon — you can check out Luke's Pentiment review before that game arrives in the Game Pass library tomorrow! What do you think will make it into the top 40 next? How long will Modern Warfare II be first? Let us know what you think in the comments!
