The 5 Most Popular PS4 Games According to the Data
| Name | Platform | Play Hours | Players |
|---|---|---|---|
| Call of Duty: Modern Warfare | PS4 | 11,339 | 397 |
| Final Fantasy VII Remake | PS4 | 5,468 | 144 |
| Grand Theft Auto V | PS4 | 4,915 | 178 |
| Persona 5 Royal | PS4 | 4,313 | 70 |
| FIFA 20 | PS4 | 2,248 | 73 |
What is particularly noticeable about the data? When you look at the data, various things stand out about the most popular PlayStation 4 games among the group:
- Persona 5 Royal (4th place) has the least players with 70; however, these players spend the most time per session (2.5 hours) by far.
- Games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and FIFA 20 are more designed for quick rounds, so the playtime per session is comparatively short.
What else stands out? Compared to March 2020, this time there are also two single-player games.
The reason for this is easy to explain: The two newcomers in April 2020 are both games that were released in early April 2020. This means they benefit greatly from their release. It is therefore unlikely that these games will still appear in the top 5 in May 2020.
The other three titles focus heavily on multiplayer. Especially FIFA 20 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare are actively supplied with fresh content, and even the now aging Grand Theft Auto V still occasionally receives updates or events.
