Thick Thighs Save Lives
NeoGAF's Physical Games Advocate Extraordinaire
After a brief delay, the latest UK charts are in and while all of the familiar faces remain at the top, Prime Day sales have shaken things up elsewhere.
The top three are unchanged this time around, with Hogwarts Legacy, EA Sports FC 24 and Luigi's Mansion 2 HD claiming the podium. The only real surprises in the top ten this week are the inclusion of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown at ninth thanks to some recent sales — considering it hasn't even made the top 40 for a while, that's not bad going — and The Witcher III: Wild Hunt Complete Edition making the jump from 37th to tenth.
Elsewhere, Prime Day sales have caused more havoc. The Sea of Stars physical edition has broken the top 40 in its second week to land at 24th, Sonic Superstars has sped back into 11th after missing the top 40 completely last week and Big Brain Academy: Brain vs. Brain continues to perform weirdly well, moving up to 32nd.
