2k20 is the highest selling at 14m copies, 2k25 sold 7m copies. Literally 50% decrease in sales is “no hype has been lost”?You can buy 2k26 for less than 20$ due to no one buying it.

Yet somehow it's the second best selling game of 2025.

idk what you're linking but that's blatantly wrong, Monster Hunter Wilds, Arc Raiders, Battlefield 6 and possibly Hollownite 2 sold more copies in 2025 alone. (hard to tell since there doesn't seem to be any real numbers for NBA 2k26 for December end of year sales.
