I’d be more curious to see what percentage of game sales were for 2025 titles versus older.

I think that would paint a truer picture of player behaviour, and whether there are any fundamental shifts in trends.

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
