With two decades-old franchises ruling the PlayStation Store's North American and European downloads in 2018, other bestselling titles included Red Dead Redemption 2, Grand Theft Auto V, God Of War and Spider-Man.
Action titles stuffed the top ten PlayStation Store downloads for 2018 as far as North America and Europe were concerned.
Rankings revealed by PlayStation's respective regional blogs showed that Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4 was number one in North America and second place in Europe, where soccer sim FIFA 19 was top.
Rockstar Games' Wild West epic Red Dead Redemption 2, the same studio's previous release Grand Theft Auto V, Greek and Norse mythological mashup God Of War, Marvel superhero reimagining Spider-Man, and alt-US shooter Far Cry 5 were also popular in both regions.
Gang Beasts and Rocket League stood out as smash hits from smaller developers in the North American top ten.
Comedy brawler Gang Beasts launched in December 2017, and the RC Cars and soccer crossover Rocket League was a month-long freebie for PlayStation Plus subscribers in July 2015 and four years later is still attracting new purchases.
Basketball game NBA 2K19, NFL sim Madden NFL 19, and fantasy combat exploration adventure Monster Hunter: World were likewise unique to the North American top ten, while the FIFA franchise scored a double entry on the European ranking thanks to the presence of FIFA 18 as well as its successor FIFA 19.
Fortnite was the top free-to-play game download in North America. PlayStation Europe instead supplied a Downloadable Content chart, where Fortnite extras comprised seven of the top 10 entries. Destiny 2, Rocket League, and Call Of Duty: WWII were the other multiple entries in the European Union's DLC chart.
For the PS4's PSVR virtual reality kit, Job Simulator, Beat Saber, and Super Hot VR comprised the top three, with Job Sim uppermost in NA and Beat Saber first for the EU.
