In the UK, they began to publish digital sales charts, and they greatly change the arrangement in the overall ranking

Last week, the GSD tracker, launched under the auspices of the European trading authority ISFE (European Federation of Interactive Software), published its first official UK sales chart by calculating retailers of boxed games. Then the current three leaders looked like this: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and FIFA 20.

Top ten UK retail bestsellers for the first week of 2023:

  1. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
  2. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
  3. FIFA 20
  4. Borderlands 3
  5. Luigi’s Mansion 3
  6. Just Dance 2023
  7. Grand theft auto v
  8. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
  9. Red dead redemption 2
  10. Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Games: Tokyo 2023

Now, with a slight delay, GSD sales data for the same period in digital format has become known. It should be noted right away that not all publishers are ready to provide trackers with their data. In particular, they will not disclose digital information for the British Bethesda and Nintendo charts. Nevertheless, the available information on other companies already clearly demonstrates how serious the differences in the charts can be taking into account the information on “figure”.

For example, in the digital rating below quite impressive sales were at GTA V, Rainbow Six: Siege, Star Wars Battlefront II, Monopoly plus and Spider-man. And it is these data that have a great influence on the location of game projects in the combined TOP-10.

Top ten bestsellers in the British figure for the first week of 2023:

  1. Grand theft auto v
  2. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
  3. FIFA 20
  4. Rainbow Six: Siege
  5. Star Wars Battlefront II
  6. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
  7. Monopoly plus
  8. Spider-man
  9. Red dead redemption 2
  10. The sims 4

Combined ten (retail + number) of UK bestsellers for the first week of 2023:

  1. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
  2. Grand theft auto v
  3. FIFA 20
  4. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
  5. Rainbow Six: Siege
  6. Star Wars Battlefront II
  7. Red dead redemption 2
  8. Monopoly plus
  9. The sims 4
  10. Spider-man

In the combined chart, the first place was left for the shooter Call of Duty: Modern Warfarewhile an action adventure Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order had to move to fourth position, skipping forward GTA V (second line) and FIFA 20 (third line).

Shooter Borderlands 3, which showed itself well in retail in the first week of the new year, turned out to be insufficiently popular in digital format, so the game simply turned out to be out of the general chart. In the debut week of 2023, British gamers actively downloaded digital copies Rainbow Six: Siege, Star Wars: Battlefront II, The sims 4, Monopoly plus and Spider-man. Obviously, these projects were available at big discounts.

GamesIndustry.biz will continue to publish data on retail sales of games in the UK, as well as update them as relevant information on “figure”.
