After missing key data last week, GfK has finally provided an updated look at the UK charts so we can get an idea of where all the newbies have landed. For Nintendo’s latest, that’s a little way down. The latest look informs us that Mario & Luigi: Brothership got off to a good start last week (not that we saw it) and arrived in third, but the same can’t be said for its second appearance as the Bro-led RPG has wound up in 12th this week.
Two more newbies, LEGO Horizon Adventures and Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, follow behind in their chart debut, claiming 13th and 14th, respectively. This leaves the top ten much as we’d expect to find it. Super Mario Party Jamboree and Super Mario Bros. Wonder are still hanging around at fourth and fifth, but the only new entry is Farming Simulator 25, which breaks into the upper levels at sixth.
When we take a closer look at the top 40 in full, we see some interesting trends. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and EA Sports FC 25 continue to dominate the charts, with Hogwarts Legacy making a strong showing in third place. The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and Animal Crossing: New Horizons also maintain their positions in the top ten.
It’s worth noting that the platform breakdown for each game provides insight into the popularity of certain consoles. For example, Hogwarts Legacy has a strong presence on the Switch, while Farming Simulator 25 is popular across multiple platforms.
Overall, the UK charts showcase a diverse range of gaming experiences, from action-packed shooters to family-friendly adventures. Whether you’re a fan of Mario & Luigi or prefer the thrill of Call of Duty, there’s something for everyone in the current lineup.
