EA Sports FC 26 was the best-selling game in Europe in 2025, according to a report from GfK Entertainment.

"While preparations for this summer’s World Cup are still underway on real pitches, the match on the virtual field has long been decided – at least in Europe: EA Sports FC 26 celebrates a sweeping victory and was the continent’s most successful video game of 2025 across all platforms," reads the report.

"According to the official annual games charts compiled by GfK Entertainment, the football simulation claimed the number one spot in 16 of the 17 countries surveyed. Only Czech players crowned a different title as their winner: the medieval role‑playing game Kingdom Come: Deliverance II."

Pokémon Legends: Z‑A was the second best-selling game in Europe with it coming in second place in the UK, Germany, and Franchise, and third place in Spain. Minecraft was the third best-selling game with a boost in sales due to A Minecraft Movie. EA Sports FC 25 and Grand Theft Auto V are also in podium places on six and three countries, respectively.
