As every week, Xbox has revealed the most played games in its paid version, and the list reflects a powerful mix of shooters, sports, and open-world games that continue to dominate the activity of millions of players. On this occasion, Call of Duty stands out, which continues to lead with several deliveries, accompanied by the unbeatable Minecraft, NBA 2K25, and Grand Theft Auto V.

In this ranking, we only reflect paid games, so Fortnite, Roblox, or Apex Legends do not appear, despite their huge community and success. What’s interesting is that the great classics coexist with new proposals like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, which is making its way into Xbox Game Pass and beyond.
