Their source is this page on the Video Game Sales Wiki, which does say "The following titles are the best-selling games released in the 2020s, as of 2025.". That's how I read the headline, but you're right, it would have helped if Visual Capitalist had clarified by including that bit of info.

    Yup, and the article (Ranked: The Best-Selling Video Games Since 2020} that was published using that data mis-represents it:

    This visualization ranks the best-selling video games from 2020 to 2025 based on global unit sales using data from Video Game Sales Wiki (Fandom).

    IMO - I find the "Visual Capitalist" site to be a questionable source of information... There are quite a few red flags when it comes to that site.
