Claws for thought
Both Nintendo and Sony got in on the new release fun last week, and with our latest look at the UK charts now in, it’s time to see which came out on top.
Alas, if the headline wasn’t enough of a giveaway, it was Marvel’s Wolverine that clawed its way to victory and landed in the top spot for its debut week. This put Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave (which still came out of the gate strong) in second, and would you look at that, the Switch 2 release has bumped LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight back up to third.
