FIFA 21 tops UK Sales Charts again as Assassin's Creed falls!

Game sales were, unsurprisingly, considerable high in the last week due to Christmas sales and offers.

However, this has lead to some rather surprising entries into the top 10 sales charts for the past week, which we look at now.

Let's take a look at the Top 10 in the last week for physical game sales!

Positions 1 to 3

Firstly, let's take a look at the top three in the past week. First place on the physical sales charts goes to FIFA 21, after a significant 8% rise in sales from last week.

In second place is Assassin's Creed Valhalla, the Ubisoft title suffering a 21% drop in falls week-on-week.

Finally, in third place, Animal Crossing: New Horizons takes an honorary podium. This rise is despite a week-on-week sales drop of 20%.

Positions 4 top 6

Once again, despite a week-on-week fall in sales, Mario Kart 8: Deluxe, which has risen to fourth place. The game suffered an 8% drop in sales.

In fifth is Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. This is a drop from second place, as sales slipped by 42% from the week before.

Spider Man: Miles Morales held on to sixth despite another drop of 31%. Remember, following Christmas weeks, it is common for sales to suffer a fall.

Positions 7 to 10

In a surprise seventh place is Just Dance 2021, which has achieved a 35% increase in sales over its 2020 counterpart in the same time period.

In eighth is Cyberpunk 2077, after experiencing a 57% drop in sales following a rough launch littered with bugs.

Ninth is Super Mario 3D All-Stars, a 25% fall in sales still resulting in a rise to ninth from tenth.

Finally, rounding out the Top 10 is Minecraft Switch Edition. The game saw a 26% drop in sales but still rose one place from tenth.
