Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy has once again managed to bat away the competition, keeping its position at the top of the UK charts for a fourth consecutive week.

With a generous amount of Xbox One price reductions taking place over Amazon Prime Day last week, the top ten is a strange blend of current heavy-hitters and older re-entries this week. Rare's Xbox One exclusive Sea of Thieves has re-entered the charts thanks to being included in console bundles over the sale, as has Minecraft: Xbox Edition and Forza Horizon 3LEGO The Incredibles has also seen another impressive week thanks to the Incredibles 2 movie being released earlier this month.

Octopath Traveler has sadly, but perhaps unsurprisingly, dropped from its third-place spot last week to 16th place this time around with a 60% fall in sales. That drop is relatively normal for a game as niche as Octopath Traveler, however, with the sudden jump of Xbox titles making the chart position drop seem a little more significant.

Interestingly, only 2,000 sales separate all of the top six positions this week so things were very close indeed. Here's the top ten:

1. (1) Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy
2. (3) LEGO The Incredibles
3. (Re-Entry) Sea of Thieves
4. (Re-Entry) Minecraft: Xbox Edition
5. (New) Sonic Mania Plus
6. (Re-Entry) Forza Horizon 3
7. (5) God of War
8. (11) The Crew 2
9. (6) FIFA 18
10. (10) Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
