UK Sales Charts: EA Sports FC 24 Scores Flawless Victory on Mortal Kombat 1 | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

Mortal Kombat 1 made a splashy entrance in the UK's boxed games chart last week, debuting at number one. However, its combo has been broken early by EA Sports FC 24 which, predictably, arrives right at the top. Just over half of the physical copies sold in UK stores over the launch weekend were for PS5. NetherRealm's fighter is still holding its own, though, settling for second.

The remainder of the top 10 is pretty much business as usual. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor returns at number eight, and The Witcher III: Wild Hunt Complete Edition sees CD Projekt's RPG come back, too, at number 10. Aside from that, Hogwarts Legacy is still flying high in third, Grand Theft Auto 5 continues to perform in fifth, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is up into ninth. Obviously we're heading into October now, so we expect to see some shifts as some heavy-hitters release.

Here's the latest physical top 10 in full (digital not included).

Having grown up alongside PlayStation, Stephen has developed an eclectic taste in video games and a wide knowledge of the medium, from small indie gems to the biggest AAA blockbusters. Ever hopeful that the Burnout series makes a miraculous return.

what a shocker ) people like football!

surprised Witcher has made it into the list

There was a lot digital sales for FC24 as bundles on PlayStation and Xbox, and when working it out the game was free and the console cheaper as a bundle offer with console plus FC24 digital game.

Crazy how they push this game with deal console bundles which as good as gives the game away.

I'm interested to see where AC Mirage will end up next week. I suppose beating FC 24 will be out of the question, so a 2nd place result should be good enough.

Glad I'm sober from FIFA for the past
