UK Sales Charts: Onslaught of New Releases Can't Touch Hogwarts Legacy | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

Big surprise time: Hogwarts Legacy is still sat at the top of the UK's physical games chart. The game, which has so far sold more than 12 million copies globally, is at number one for the third week in a row since its release in mid-February. The PS5 version of the game continues to sell best at UK retail, accounting for 82 per cent of last week's sales.

It holds firm against a handful of new releases. Octopath Traveler II, Atomic Heart, and Like a Dragon: Ishin all make their debut, coming in at numbers six, seven, and eight respectively. Meanwhile, God of War Ragnarok has been bumped down to fourth, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is the lowest it's been for a while at number nine.

Here's the latest top 10 in full.

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.

Atomic Heart really appeals to me but I just can’t get past the broken trophies as a trophy hunter and father with limited time. Awesome to see it selling well since it’s a small team who only wants to make a game and not have political discourse tie them down.

All these boycotts making a real difference I see. I'm genuinely glad for the developers that they are getting the success they deserve.

Glad to see all the LADs have been buying Ishin, 8th on this chart really isn't that bad for a semi-budget remaster/remake of a ten year old game.

@ErrantRob Leave it for until it inevitably comes to one of the PS Plus tiers somewhere in 2024. If they still haven't fixed the many glitched Trophies, just skip it entirely.

Seeing atomic heart and ishin chart makes me
