UK Charts: Orbitals leaves the top 10, leaders hold the podium

Changes in the UK sales chart

Fresh video game sales data for the United Kingdom has been released. Following last week's busy period, the situation at the top of the chart has somewhat stabilized, though not without changes.

The remarkable exclusive for the new Switch 2 console titled Orbitals, which debuted at number three, dropped significantly this week to 18th place. It appears that the majority of interested players purchased the project right during the launch window.

Who leads the top?

Two other new releases from last week maintained their podium lead, though they swapped places:

• The Blood of the Dawnwalker and Onimusha: Way of the Sword remain sales leaders;
• The Switch 2 version's share of total Onimusha sales stands at a modest 7%.

1. Onimusha: Way of the Sword - PS5 88%, Switch 2 7%, Xbox Series 6%
2. The Blood of Dawnwalker
3. Pokémon Pokopia
4. Mario Kart World
5. Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream
6. Mortal Kombat 1 - PS5 99%, Xbox Series 1%, Switch 0%
7. EA Sports FC 26 - Switch 31%, PS5 28%, Xbox Series 16%, Switch 2 13%
8. 007 First Light
9. The Witcher III: Wild Hunt GOTY Edition
10. Hogwarts Legacy - PS5 83%, Switch 2 8%, Switch 4%, Xbox One 2%

The market is gradually adapting to the new releases, and we continue to monitor the performance of projects for Nintendo platforms.
