What did January’s overall U.S. game spending show?
The NPD figures reported by GamesBeat put total U.S. video-game sales at $4.347 billion in January 2023, down 5% year over year. Each tracked spending category either fell or stayed level.
Rank #2
- Dead Space is on a region-free physical disc for the PlayStation 5.
- Digital Deluxe content includes 5 exclusive cosmetics (3 unique suits and 2 suit textures). Unique Suits: Infested, Lone Survivor, and Venture & Suit Textures: Sanctified and Bloody
- Dead Space SteelBook
- Four Mini Posters
- Dead Space Collector's Box
| Category | January 2023 spending | Year-over-year change |
|---|---|---|
| Content | $3.788 billion | Down 5% |
| Hardware | $393 million | Flat |
| Accessories | $165 million | Down 14% |
Content spending included physical and digital full games, downloadable content and microtransactions, and subscriptions across several platforms; mobile spending figures were provided by Sensor Tower. NPD analyst Mat Piscatella said the shortfall was driven by drops in mobile content, physical console content, and gamepad spending. He also said that increased spending on PlayStation 5 and Switch hardware was offset by declines on other platforms.
Piscatella described January 2023 as the first year-over-year decline in the U.S. video-game market since September 2022, when consumer spending was 4% below September 2021 levels. The figures and his statements are reported in Rachel Kaser’s February 13, 2023 GamesBeat report; they describe that month’s U.S. market, not current sales.

What the chart can—and cannot—tell you
The chart establishes monthly rank, not unit sales, revenue for an individual game, profit, or the size of the gap between titles. It shows that Dead Space was the second-ranked game in the U.S. for January and the highest-ranked new release in the reported top 20; it does not show that the game outsold the No. 1 title or led the market overall.
The same report notes that The Last of Us: Part 1 returned to the top 20 and that Monster Hunter: Rise moved from No. 68 to No. 13. It suggests the HBO series may have contributed to the former and the game’s PlayStation and Xbox releases may have contributed to the latter. Those are proposed explanations, not causes established by the ranking.
