We’re now pretty much into the swing of things with the next-generation of video game consoles, but the systems are yet to have a radical impact on the UK sales chart, it seems.
The week’s results, published by GFK, tell a similar story to what we’ve seen for the past few Decembers. Call of Duty: Ghosts is the week’s bestseller, followed by FIFA 14 and Lego Marvel Super Heroes respectively. After that it’s DICE’s Battlefield 4 in fourth, with Assassin’s Creed IV, Just Dance 2014 and Need for Speed: Rivals all following in that order.
The first non-PS4/One game comes next in Grand Theft Auto V, with WWE 2K14 behind it. Rounding out the top 10 is Gran Turismo 6, continuing to underwhelm when stacked up to Gran Turismo 5.
With little in the way of major releases left for the year, don’t expect much of a radical shift until the big games of 2014 start hitting. Maybe something will topple Call of Duty then.
