New Names and Re-entries Engage in a Fierce Battle for the Summit

Recommended Videos

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy firmly retains its position at the pinnacle of the U.K. charts for the second consecutive week, even in the face of numerous upheavals within the top ten.

After months of inertia, last week witnessed an enormous rearrangement in the rankings. Mario & Rabbids Kingdom Battle made a direct entry at number 2, and there were also powerful debuts from everybody’s Golf, ARK: Survival Evolved and Sega’s remake: Yakuza Kiwami.

The former chart-topping Crash Bandicoot refuses to fade away quietly, maintaining its stance within the top five. Meanwhile, Overwatch returned with a vengeance, storming back into the fray and advancing all the way from number 21 to number 9.

Next week will bring a complete retail release week for the listed newcomers, so Chloe and Nadine have a tough battle ahead. With many of these new releases being semi-niche titles, the odds seem to favor them for a third week at the top.
