Graceful ascent
The latest UK boxed charts data is in, and it’s a fairly quiet week with no major new entries for the Switch 1 & 2. PS5 and PC got Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls, which debuts at number 6, while Game Freak’s Beast of Reincarnation launched on PS5, PC, and Xbox, landing at number 5.
Meanwhile, Capcom’s Resident Evil Requiem saw a nice boost in sales to jump all the way up to number one, beating Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced and Pokémon Pokopia. A quick search only reveals that outlets are selling Requiem at roughly £10 less than the RRP, but we’re not seeing any major discounts that could explain the bump in sales.

It’s also worth noting that the Switch 2 version of Requiem sold the least amount of copies, making up 5% of the overall platform split.
Here’s the full top 40, with platform breakdowns for games available on Switch, Switch 2, and other consoles:
