The latest UK charts data is in, and to the surprise of absolutely no one, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has once again topped the pile, despite a 50% sales drop week-on-week. It’s the third week at number one for the latest Zelda entry, which sold a bonkers 10 million copies within its first three days of sale.
Meanwhile, new entries for this week include The Lord of Ring The Lord of the Rings: Gollum on PS5, Xbox, and PC along with Farming Simulator 23 on the Nintendo Switch. The former came in at number six in the charts to largely negative critical reception, while the latter settled in at number twenty-one.
Other points of interest include the ongoing success of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild in the wake of its direct sequel, a healthy boost for Metroid Prime Remastered, and the continued downfall of Minecraft for the Switch. We suspect this is largely due to Minecraft Legends, which is currently sitting at number eleven with 87% of its total boxed sales on the Switch.
So, let’s take a peek at this week’s top forty in full:
