It’s a new week, so it’s time to check out the latest UK boxed charts data.

Fresh off its release on 9th July, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced has stormed to the top to grab the gold. For those interested, PS5 expectedly took the lion’s share of sales at 84%, with Xbox trailing at 15% and PC netting only 1%. Keep in mind, however, that the latter two are primarily digital these days with minimal retail presence.

It’s a fine start for Ubisoft’s remake, though, with the company also confirming that it’s already sold over 2 million copies. Here’s hoping it follows in AC: Shadows footsteps with a Switch 2 port soon. Speaking of which, 007 First Light is still performing well to come in at number two. This one actually is getting a Switch 2 port fairly soon, though the specific release date is still unknown at the time of writing.

Elsewhere, Star Fox is just about hanging onto the top ten this week to place at number nine, while Digimon Story Time Stranger re-enters the charts at number twenty-nine following its release on Switch and Switch 2. Naturally, the two systems made up the majority of sales this week, but PS5 did still manage 5%.

Here’s the full top 40, with platform breakdowns for games available on Switch, Switch 2, and other consoles:
