UK Boxed Charts: Week 5, 2024 (Jan 28 - Feb 03)

Thick Thighs Save Lives

NeoGAF's Physical Games Advocate Extraordinaire
In the UK this week, two new releases took the top 2 spots in the charts, with Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League coming in at number 1, and Persona 3 Reload taking the silver medal. Suicide Squad's triumph might be somewhat surprising given the relatively mixed critical reception, but nevertheless, it's a big win here for Rocksteady and Warner Bros. Games

Elsewhere, Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth has tumbled from number 2 down to number 28. There's no doubt that the franchise has somewhat of a niche audience here in the UK, but that fall definitely hurts to see.

Over on the Switch, there are no major releases to speak of (but we do have Jujutsu Kaisen: Cursed Clash enter the charts at number 29), so we've got Super Mario Bros. Wonder sitting nicely at number 4 with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe just behind at number 5. Meanwhile, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is slowly creeping down the charts to land at number 13, but with two new releases taking the top 2 spots, this isn't entirely surprising.

Here's your look at this week's top 40 in full, with platform breakdowns for all of the titles available on other consoles alongside the Switch:

Have we had this confirmed or just projection on your part?

It was something that S SneakersSO stated *could* possibly happen to some large AAA 3rd party games in a worse-case-like scenario due to the cost of developing games on Xbox right now and also how MS has trained their gamer base to not expect to buy games.

Those xbox numbers are awful. I don't care if they go third party, or if they bring games to playstation, but something has to change. People just don't care about buying into the ecosystem and the ones in it don't buy games because of gamepass.

Seeing hogwarts consistently in these after nearly a full year is impressive.
