We all know Animal Crossing: New Horizons has been a surprise smash hit for Nintendo, but new information from digital sales tracker SuperData provides a clearer picture of just how huge the game really is. AC: New Horizons has sold more digital units in its first month (5 million in total) than any other console game in history, unseating former champion Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. In comparison to other Nintendo games, New Horizons has sold more than Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and Pokémon Sword and Shield combined in its first month. Damn!

　　Of course, digital sales are through the roof in general due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Doom Eternal sold 3 million digital units in March, around three times as much as 2016’s Doom sold in its first month. Meanwhile, the release of the free-to-play Warzone battle royale mode has boosted the playerbase for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 159 percent to 62.7 million, and Half-Life: Alyx is easily one of the biggest VR-exclusive launches of all time, selling 860,000 digital units.

　　Here are SuperData’s full PC, console, and mobile digital sales charts for March:
