Call of Duty: WWII is still No.1 as three new titles enter Top Ten (UK Sales Charts)

There’s no budging Activision’s Call of Duty: WWII from the top of the charts this week. Not only has the FPS clung onto its debut position, but it also posts the best week two sales for any game in the UK charts this year, beating previous record holder FIFA 18 – which, incidentally, climbs one place to 2nd after matching its previous week’s sales.

I was extremely satisfied with the single player campaign on this game.

Toby_19812768d ago (Edited 2768d ago )

I would like to know which gaming platform sold the most copies.

Lime1232768d ago

Well, PS4 leads about 1.6:1 there and Sony has marketing deal/bundles...

Gazondaily2768d ago

Yooooo wtf? Forza Horizon 3 outsold GT Sport?! The game came out last year! And Forza 7 beat it too. Shieee!!

Toby_19812768d ago (Edited 2768d ago )

It's only UK not the world. Forza is also on two platforms PC and Xbox

Gazondaily2768d ago

Yeah I know it's UK.

But Forza Horizon 3 outselling GT Sport? Not saying it's not well deserved; Horizon 3 is, imo, one of the best racers ever made but the game came out last year.

GT is a sales behemoth- I didn't think it would get outdone by both Forza games, let alone one that came out last year.

Funny how certain folks always seem to get their geography maps out when sales of Xbox articles appear on N4g

Kribwalker2768d ago

this is physical sales only Toby, and PC doesn’t have a physical release so?

@Kribwalker

Where does it say only physical sales in the article🤔

lolosgolos2768d ago

GT Sport will be out of the top ten before year end with it's bad publicity even worse if the new content is not free

it's no use. When news come out that Gt sport sales is ten times both forza's combined he will move the goal post.

Forza Horizon 3??!!

That's pretty strange that a game like that would beat out a newly released game. Especially GT which comes out once every red moon.

Did Horizon 3 get some patch for the X? Maybe that would explain it along side the X sales in the UK.

Gazondaily2768d ago

Nah the Horizon 3 patch is not even coming out this year. Early Jan.

Pretty crazy.

Lime1232768d ago

Can you understand that Xbox One FH3 bundle is main bundle for Xbox One in UK?

Ashlen2768d ago (Edited 2768d ago )

Don't act so surprised this was the X launch week.

If you look at the chart GT Sport in the previous week was rank 5 ahead of both Forza games by 2+ places. By next weeks ranking there is a good chance things will return to normal with GT Sport outselling Forza.

Gazondaily2768d ago

GT is supposed to be dwarfing Forza in sales (as we are repeatedly told) not getting beaten by it or worse, a title over one year old?

I didn't see any comments anticipating Forza Horizon 3 outselling GT Sport during the release of the X.

Ashlen2768d ago (Edited 2768d ago )

And it has been, It's won every prior week.

Forza was boosted by X launch and of course you know that's true.

Nyxus2768d ago

@ Septic: well it does:

"Gran Turismo Sport topped the UK all-formats physical sales charts for one week,[33] selling three times as many copies as Forza 7. It did the same in Japan[34] and New Zealand, and got to number 2 in Australia.[35]"

MattE2768d ago (Edited 2768d ago )

Not surprised with the X release.. said this a while back .. the sales will obviously increase with the console release.. Horizon 3 will pick up again when the game gets enhanced In Jan 😊 Great games !

Goldby2768d ago

two very different games septic.

one is about going as fast as you can all the time, bumping people into trees and anythign else to make sure you win and the other (GT sport) is about actual precise driving and respect between gamers.

Lime1232768d ago

Maybe FH3 is all the time in top because it's main Xbox One bundle in UK? What do you think?

FM7 sold better because XBX release so it got boost.

Sonic_Vs_Mario2768d ago

Microsoft doesn't sell physical copies with console bundles, only digital games. GfK data only counts physical sales

Lime1232768d ago

First week in UK:

Gran Turismo Sport - 74,000
Forza Motorsport 7 - 27,000

https://www.resetera.com/th...

?

3:1 in UK where Xbox is strongest. What is split for other european countries, like Germany, Spain, France, Italy,....where Xbox One doesn't exist? 100:1?

DeadSilence2768d ago

Forza Horizon 3 is bundled in every Xbox One S.

NoPeace_Walker2768d ago

Every Xbox One S in the UK?🤔

https://www.microsoft.com/e...

Stop making stuff up. Xbox One S has many bundles just like PS4 have many bundles including one in the UK with GT Sport https://www.game.co.uk/en/m...

The fact is a 2 year old game is outselling a game in the same genre that just came out a few weeks ago is just Beastly! Oh, Forza 7, without a bundle is also ahead. Double Beastly!

I've Been Replaying Assassin's Creed Origins, And It's Reminded Me What Shadows Is Sorely Lacking

It took going back to a much older game to realise just how empty Assassin's Creed Shadows feels.

"I've never thought feudal Japan would be a good Assassin's Creed setting. Give me 1960s southern England with mods and rockers."

Aaaaaaand that's where I stopped reading.

Terry_B18d ago

Never read anything on that website.

chicken_in_the_corn18d ago

I agree with the first part of their statement. Japan is so overused and it wasn't particularly interesting in Shadows. Now that it's been done, they can do something better.

And shadows reminds me of something origins is lacking. Virtually every game is lacking something. It is because it is lacking, that it has what it isnt. Funny dichotomy that…

anast18d ago

Origins is a beautiful game made by talented people that got turned into a brutal level-gate fest by the CEOs.

PRIMORDUS18d ago

There are only a few Assassin's Creed games I played. Original, The Ezio Collection, and what I think is probably the best in the series Assassin's Creed Odyssey with the DLC. I'm done with the series, it's the same shit.

isarai17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

Same, enjoyed 1, looooved the ezio trilogy, and 4 was peak, everything after that just sucked. Unity was a great direction but the bugs and how long it took to fix killed it, best parkour system in the series tho

AC Origins is the last great Ubisoft game. Period. This game show how great the Ubisoft story writing once was. Also the meticulous research Ubisoft did in the field of Egyptology. Ubisoft was so pride of their research that it made a separate Touring mode just to showcase all of their study.
