There are countless video game franchises available to play across consoles, PC, handhelds, mobile devices, virtual reality headsets, and more. However, there are somevideo game franchisesthat stand above the rest as some of the most popular in the industry. A new study has analyzed Google Trends data to figure out the most popular video game franchises in each state.

The study was conducted by Yahtzee Craze and looked at the top trending franchises by each state. The study found thatStar Warswas the top searched video game franchises in seven states, with fans looking up things about games likeStar Wars JediandLEGO Star Wars.Super Mariotook away second place by being the most-searched game in five states, whereasPokemonandSpider-Mantied for third place.

Other big gaming franchises featured on the list includeCall of DutyandResident Evil, which both took the top crown in three states each. Various other video game franchises appear on the list as well, withMadden NFLandWarhammer 40,000being the most-searched in two states, and the rest all taking home one state each.

While Google Trends can give a decent indication of what fans are interested in, one could argue that it would make more sense to look at sales data. One could also point out that it’s not necessarily fair to compare franchises likeStar WarsandSpider-Manto other video games. After all,Star Warsis primarily a film franchisewhileSpider-Manis a comic book franchise. It would be interesting to see what the results would have been had they been removed, and the study focused exclusively on pure video game franchises.

Otherwise, there aren’t many surprises in the list.Call of Duty,Pokemon,Resident Evil, andSuper Marioare some of the longest-running and most popular video game franchises of all time, so it makes sense that they would appear frequently on a list like this.
