Tom Nook still shifting homes
Sucker Punch’s mega-selling PS4 releaseGhost of Tsushimahas successfully retained the number one spot of the UK Charts. The open-world samurai epichas already broken global release records, selling 2.4 million copies worldwide in just the first three days of release, thereby becoming the PS4’s fastest-selling, first-party, original IP.
The other major release of this past fortnight – Nintendo’sPaper Mario: The Origami King– currently resides at number four, having slipped two places from its launch week standing. Speaking of Nintendo, bothAnimal Crossing: New HorizonsandRing Fit Adventuresaw a sales resurgence, allowing the two Switch titles to climb to number two and number 10 respectively.
With very little on the horizon in terms of big-budget, mainstream releases, the UK Chart is likely to stagnate a little throughout August, with consistent sellers simply jockeying for position until September brings about the dawn of the lucrative Holiday market.
