After a brief delay, this week’s UK charts are now with us and it is once again a slightly<\/em> quiet one for Nintendo as far as the top spots go.<\/p>\n

The unstoppable forces of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe<\/a> and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom<\/a> continue to hold strong in the top ten, claiming fourth and fifth places respectively, and Minecraft<\/a> and Fae Farm<\/a> round out the upper echelons, but this is dominantly a week for Sony and Microsoft’s consoles.<\/p>\n

Last week’s champion, Starfield<\/a>, has taken a tumble down to eighth this time around as Hogwarts Legacy<\/a> climbs to the top spot once again. The Crew Motorfest<\/a> speeds into second place in its chart debut and even Red Dead Redemption 2<\/a> has popped back into the top ten.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Nintendo continues to perform well with the likes of Animal Crossing: New Horizons<\/a>, Pikmin 4<\/a>, Nintendo Switch Sports<\/a> and Pok\u00e9mon Violet<\/a> hanging around in the teens. This week also sees Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge<\/a> pop back into the charts at number 30, with 31% of the console split coming from Switch (41% on PS5 and 23% on PS4).<\/p>\n

With the chit-chat out of the way, here’s this week’s UK top forty in full:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
