Its very rare a company will launch a game after Black Friday in the US.

Reasoning is that the biggest shopping day is Black Friday, and after that, it would be rather hard to market, and sell games in the maelstrom that is Christmas shopping.

So for maximum yields, the best time to launch a game is November, because you get Black Friday, and December which are the best times to shop.

 

I agree.  I think it would be more benficial for a game to be out for the entirety of December, instead of part of it.
