🎮 Major publishers Microsoft and EA have stopped sharing digital game sales data in the U.S. with tracking firm Circana.
📊 This move mirrors a similar situation in Europe, where GSD also lost data from these companies. Microsoft's withdrawal includes data from Xbox Game Studios, Bethesda, and Activision Blizzard.
🔒 Nintendo already withholds its digital eShop data, and Ubisoft partially shares theirs, indicating a trend towards less transparency in the industry.
📉 With physical sales declining, the lack of digital sales data makes it difficult for analysts and consumers to accurately gauge a game's commercial success.
