A new week, a new GfK chart showing us the biggest movers and shakers in the United Kingdom. This week, Mass Effect: Andromeda is continuing to do well despite widespread criticism surrounding the unpolished nature of Bioware's space opera. Note that the GfK chart includes just physical sales and not digital ones, so this chart only paints a part of the picture.

Here's the full top 10:

  1. Mass Effect: Andromeda
  2. Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands
  3. LEGO Worlds
  4. Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix
  5. Grand Theft Auto V
  6. Horizon Zero Dawn
  7. FIFA 17
  8. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
  9. Rocket League
  10. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare
This week's top 3 saw no change with Mass EffectGhost Recon and LEGO Worlds still being just as popular this week as they were last week. A new entry into this list is Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix (quite the mouthful, I know). Foregoing any commentary on that title, this collection includes the first 2 Kingdom Hearts games with improved visuals. With this bundle, you'll also get remastered cinematics from Kingdom Hearts 358/2, Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep FINAL MIX, and remastered cinematics from Kingdom Hearts Re:coded. More info here if you want it.

This week's chart also shows Grand Theft Auto V retaining it's number 5 spot on the list, as well as Horizon Zero Dawn falling down a couple of places from 4 to 6. FIFA 17 also hasn't moved up or down this week. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild got knocked down 2 places, Rocket League fell just 1, and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare replaces Forza Horizon 3 as the number 10. `

You can read the full chart by going to the GfK website.


Quick Take

Relatively little surprises in this week's charts. Seeing Rocket League still in the top 10 after all this time makes me happy. I also like that Mass Effect: Andromeda is doing well. Despite its flaws (of which there are many) it's still a very fun game

I've been playing games since I was just barely able to walk so I might as well write about them.
