But FIFA 21 still holds the premier position
While Electronic Arts’ football simulatorFIFA 21retains the number one spot of the UK Charts for a second week, a surge of physical sales saw a glut of Nintendo Switch titles shoot up the rankings.
GamesIndustry.biz citesAmazon’s Prime Day event as the reason behind the spike in Nintendo game sales, which sawAnimal Crossing: New Horizons,Mario Kart 8 Deluxe,Minecraft,Ring Fit Adventure, andSuper Mario 3D All-Starsamong the titles having a particularly successful week. Even Ubisoft’sJust Dance 2020made a comeback, hot-stepping all the way from number 17 to number seven.
Elsewhere in the charts, there is little to report. Activision’sCrash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Timeremains in the Top Ten at number nine, while Square Enix’sMarvel’s Avengershas seemingly long-peaked, leaving the upper echelon within a month of release. nWay’sPower Rangers: Battle for the Gridsaw its physical launch this week, but failed to make much of an impact, debuting at number 38. Releasing digitally back in 2019, fans would likely have picked up the licensed tag-fighter long before now.
