After a short delay, the latest UK boxed charts are now in and this week sees the return to a very familiar top three.
Hogwarts Legacy once again finds itself ahead of the pack, while last week's silver medalist and Christmas number one (sort of), Super Mario Bros. Wonder, has dropped a place and now sits in third. This has left room for the old faithful EA Sports FC 24 to slide into the top rankings once again after briefly spending a week at number six.
The rest of the chart is just as unsurprising this week too. The classics of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Nintendo Switch Sports and Minecraft all hang about in the top ten (because of course they do) and the rest of the lineup is much as you might expect. That said, the Switch is the most popular platform for NBA 2K24 this week, which is... something.
Here's your look at this week's top 40 in full, with platform splits for Switch games that also appear on other platforms:

Just curious.... how do you play the Just Dance games on PS5 and Xbox? The Switch obviously has the joycons to use.
How do you even play Just Dance on PS5 or Xbox?!
(Still loving the console split column)
Edit: I swear, I did not see the first comment before I commented. Jinx!
You use a mobile phone as a controller to play Just Dance on ps5
Odd that people are getting back to Mortal Kombat 11 instead of buying into Mortal Kombat 1 just when MK1 is getting more contents. Guess not many people like the new era direction that NRS is taking. Also making Takeda the cousin of Kenshi instead of his son seems kinda weird now.
@GamerGrandpa Weird can't you just use PS Move or Xbox Kinect for Just Dance on PS5 and Xbox? Both consoles that claimed to be backwards compatible with last gen's craps.
@Coversnail
Hmm. Interesting. Thanks! I was curious about that. Wasn't sure if you had to have Move controllers or Kinect or something for it.
@Serpenterror
That's what I was wondering. Apparently you use a mobile phone with a Just Dance app or something for it.
Thanks for the console split info Nintendo Live. Very interesting.
Love seeing the split. Interesting seeing 3rd party AAA games selling more on Switch than xbox series.
@JimNorman is Mario Wonder 2nd or 3rd? Article says 2nd but list says 3rd...
@Otoemetry whoops - a typo from me there! The table is correct, Wonder is in third this week 😄
@JimNorman no worries!
