GamesIndustry.biz shared the statistics created by Fancensus. A total of approximately 3,000 websites were analysed that wrote about the presentations within 24 hours of their start.
The Xbox Games Showcase was of great interest to the media, as the first 5 games were presented at this exhibition, and three more were in the top ten.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 was the biggest success. It was followed by Doom: The Dark Ages, Gears of War: E-Day, Avowed, and Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
