Horizon Forbidden West returns to #1 on UK Boxed Charts

Horizon Forbidden West is once again the best selling game in the UK according to the GfK UK Boxed Charts. This is likely due to the PlayStation 5 hardware bundle that packages the post-apocalyptic action adventure game with the best selling console. 95% of Horizon sales were on the current gen machine, so it feels like gamers may be ready to leave the PlayStation 4 behind entirely.

Mario Strikers: Battle League Football, which was in first place last week, has fallen to the third spot, as LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga takes the second spot once again. Mario’s sales fell 58% compared to the previous week. 

The Quarry, which was in the fourth spot last week, remains in the GfK UK Boxed Top Ten, but has fallen to spot number 7 after a 63% fall in sales. It continues to sell well predominantly on PlayStation platforms, with only 13% of players picking the game up on Xbox platforms.
