The UK's first physical games chart of 2025 is in, and there aren't many 2024 games in the top 10.
Hogwarts Legacy, which has now charted 100 times since its release, is number one. It's followed by EA Sports FC 25 in second, but leapfrogging into third is 2022's Elden Ring.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is bumped down to fourth, which is its lowest position for several weeks, and possibly since it released.

GTAV will probably be back in the top 10 next week for the millionth time as well. It's basically the same *****, week in and week out.
@somnambulance indeed. I'd purchase an expansion in a heart beat. This game was the perfect chill out game for me. I spent so much time mooching around the mansion before I ventured out into the wild because it was so
