After a brief delay, we now have the week's charts for boxed sales in the UK and surprising absolutely nobody, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has held onto the top spot after debuting in first place last week.
According to GamesIndustry.biz, Link's latest outing has seen a 73% drop in sales week-on-week (though that is not unusual for a game which receives so much hype around its opening) and has now overtaken both Link's Awakening on Switch and Ocarina of Time 3D to become the sixth best-selling Zelda title in UK history. All of that ain't too bad after only two weeks on the market.
FIFA 23 and Hogwarts Legacy continue to hold strong in second and third place respectively, while Star Wars: Jedi Survivor just slips off of the podium.
Elsewhere, LEGO 2K Drive has debuted in the charts at number 7, with 31% of the game's sales coming from the Switch (beaten only by the PS5 which took 37%). This was just enough to beat the continued love for Zelda on the console, as Breath of the Wild once again lands at the eighth spot in the charts — also, check out the surprise reappearance from Skyward Sword HD back in the top 40 at number 14!
The rest of the chart is pretty much as we would expect it, but we are once again seeing the continued fall of Minecraft (which used to be a regular in the top ten). This time, the game lands at 27th, dropping from the already-low spot of 22nd last week — what is happening?!
Without further ado, here's your look at the week's top forty in full:
