This week’s UK chart sees an all-new top three, with Marvel’s Avengers leading the way. Despite debuting at no.1, Square-Enix’s superhero smash ‘em up – which currently has a 71% Metacritic – couldn’t outperform the 2018 PS4-exclusive Marvel’s Spider-Man. Sales were reportedly on par with Crystal Dynamic’s last Tomb Raider game, however. The UK chart …
Considering last week was jam-packed with new releases, we expect to see a multitude of fresh faces in this week’s UK physical sales chart. For reasons various, that hasn’t happened – just two new titles managed to break into the top 40. Madden NFL 21 was the highest-charting new arrival taking #10. Project CARS 3 …
Animal Crossing: New Horizons continues to dominate the UK chart, this time dethroning last week’s newcomer UFC 4 to take the top spot once again. UFC 4 now sits at #3 due to another sports sim claiming #2 – Take 2’s PGA Tour 2K21, a rebranding of The Golf Club series. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe …
EA’s UFC 4 has shot straight to the UK chart top spot, knocking Animal Crossing: New Horizons down to #2. The ever-popular Mario Kart 8 Deluxe held onto #3, meanwhile. At #4 it’s Ghost of Tsushima, which recently held the top spot for consecutive weeks. Price cuts continue to benefit FIFA 20, which sits at …
This week’s UK top ten includes no less than six Switch games, with Animal Crossing: New Horizons retaking the top spot. This pushes Ghost of Tsushima to #2. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe rises to #3, and then at #4 it’s a resurgence for FIFA 20. With FIFA 21 around the corner, retailers are starting to …
The majority of last week’s retail releases managed to break into the UK top 40. THQ’s Destroy All Humans! remake was the best selling, arriving at #3. Skater XL – which hasn’t exactly seen a great deal of press coverage – debuted within the top ten too, making a respectable #7. Outside of the top …
Ghost of Tsushima has managed to hold onto the UK chart top spot for a second week. Paper Mario: The Origami King wasn’t as fortunate – the Switch exclusive fell from #2 to #4. Animal Crossing: New Horizons takes its place #2. Codemasters’ F1 2020 held onto #3, proving popular. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and …
Like a sympathetic talent show judge, we’re willing to say both Ghost of Tsushima and Paper Mario: The Origami King are UK chart winners this week. Ghost of Tsushima had no trouble claiming no.1. According to GI.biz it had a better first week than Days Gone but fell well short of beating The Last of …
Codemasters’ F1 2020 is this week’s UK no.1, taking down The Last of Us Part II. It isn’t the only new release in the top 40 – GBA revival Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town took #21 while Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise made #32. The latter has been under scrutiny for …
Marvel’s Iron Man VR wasn’t able to dislodge The Last of Us Part II from the UK chart top spot. However, entering at #2 is nothing to sniff at. Nintendo claims #3 with Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Then at #4 it’s the recently, and vastly, reduced 3DS JRPG Bravely Second: End Layer. For those unaware, …
The Last of Us Part II has managed to hold onto the UK chart top spot for a second week, reports GI.biz. No surprise there. The title at #2 does come as a surprise, though. It’s Square-Enix’s 2016 3DS RPG Bravely Second: End Layer, which is currently available for a mere £2.49 at Argos. Or …
GI.biz has crunched the numbers on last week’s UK physical game sales, revealing The Last of Us: Part II had a record-breaking launch. Not only is it the fastest-selling game of 2020, beating Animal Crossing: New Horizons, but it’s also the fastest-selling PS4 game this generation. This means it had a stronger first week than …
All signs point to the Switch having an overdue re-stock at retail – Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has returned to the top of the chart, while several first-party games have significantly climbed including New Super Mario Bros. U – up from #34 to #13 – and Pokemon Sword returning at #15. In fact, the UK …
Possibly fuelled by a lack of football on TV, FIFA 20 has returned to the UK chart top spot. Last week’s no.1 – Nintendo’s Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition – had a rough second week, tumbling to #28. Fellow recent Switch releases Bioshock: The Collection and Borderlands Legendary Collection didn’t manage to stick around either, this …
