The latest UK Charts are in and, as expected, Mario Kart World has retained its lofty spot at number 1 following the Switch 2’s incredibly successful launch. But what ho, what luck, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is also in the top ten at number 6! Nintendo must be proper chuffed at that.
Elsewhere, other Switch 2 games like Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition, Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom have all slipped down every so slightly, though hardly cause for alarm. Capcom’s Street Fighter 6: Years 1-2 Fighters Edition, however, has tumbled all the way down to number 21. Perhaps this is the backlash to Game-Key Cards actually coming into effect.
A couple of Resident Evil games have also snuck their way back into the top 40, but no, it’s sadly not because Switch 2 versions have suddenly become available. We suspect it’s a result of the recent announcement of Resident Evil Requiem. That said, we wouldn’t say no to Switch 2 versions, eh Capcom. Eh? Eh? Go on.
Also, MindsEye made it to number 4?! People, people, people…
Here’s a look at the full top 40 for this week, with platform breakdowns for all of the titles available on other consoles as well as the Switch and Switch 2:
