We’ve got our latest look at the UK physical gaming charts and, rather expectedly, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond<\/a> has taken quite the tumble from its bronze-medal debut last week.<\/p>\n

Samus’ latest now finds itself in 15th position, with the top 10 awash with Switch and Switch 2 titles as we approach the holidays. Mario Kart World<\/a> reclaimed pole position (shock, horror), followed by EA SPORTS FC 26<\/a> and Pok\u00e9mon Legends: Z-A<\/a>. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe<\/a> has somehow<\/em> popped back up to fifth, and both Donkey Kong Bananza<\/a> and Super Mario Galaxy 1 + 2<\/a> have snuck back into the top 10 too.<\/p>\n

The new releases fall much lower down in the proceedings this week. Terminator 2D: NO FATE<\/a> arrived in 20th, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024<\/a> landed in 22nd, and the Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection<\/a> punched its way into 23rd.<\/p>\n

Here’s the full top 40, with platform breakdowns for games available on Switch, Switch 2, and other consoles:<\/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
