First ever digital PC chart scheduled

UKIE will publish a digital chart for PC games next month, the trade body has announced.

It’s the first measure of downloadable video game sales and UKIE says it will be improved in the months ahead. 

The basic PC chart will be made public but companies which share their data will be able to view more detailed figures on the PC download market. Chart participation is open to UKIE members and video games companies.

UKIE will continue to provide boxed game sales in conjunction with GfK Chart-Track. As previously reported by MCV, the trade organisation will be working on Xbox Live and PSN charts next.
