NBA 2K26 is shaping up to be the sports game to beat in 2025, at least according to Circana’s latest sales rankings. The latest entry in 2K’s long-running basketball series has outpaced other sports titles in the US, cementing its spot as the top-selling sports game this year. It’s not entirely surprising given the franchise’s consistent popularity and the upgrades 2K introduced with this iteration, but seeing it lead the pack so clearly underscores its enduring appeal among basketball fans and gamers alike. While the competition in sports gaming never really sleeps, NBA 2K26’s strong sales momentum hints that it remains the standard-bearer for virtual court action heading into the year.
