Tom Clancy's The Division and Far Cry Primal own the first and the second spot, respectively, in last week's UK game charts.
According to GfK Chart Track, this is Ubisoft's first record to own the top spot for four consecutive weeks since Tom Clancy's The Division release. Despite its 37 percent drop in sales, the game stays strong and leads all other games in the UK. Coming in at the second spot is Ubisoft's Far Cry Primal with an 8 percent drop in sales. This gives Ubisoft the top two places in UK game charts for the past week.
GfK notes that this week was a "quiet" one for new releases with none of the new titles entering the "Top 40". They also add that only two games "benefitted" from an increase in sales: Grand Theft Auto V with an 18 percent increase, allowing the game to rise up to the fourth spot from its previous sixth and Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6: Siege with a 21 percent increase, placing the game at the eighth spot from its previous 10th.
For the next week, Attack of the Fanboy's Damian Seeto predicts that perhaps the winning streak of Ubisoft for the past four weeks may be broken once Quantum Break is released for both PC and Xbox on April 5. Quantum Break is a sci-fi action-adventure game that features a lead character that can stop time. GamingBolt's Ravi Sinha, however, says that Tom Clancy's The Division update called "Incursion," may keep the game in its top spot.
Tom Clancy's The Division: Incursion update will add new content to the game. Of note is the new "Falcon Lost" mission map in which players can perform raids similar to those performed in Destiny. These so-called "incursions" feature high-level maps that have no checkpoints, meaning players have to rely on heavy teamwork, reliable strategies, and constant communication. These end-game missions will reward players with top gears when successfully completed but only once every week. Consecutive successful runthroughs within that week will not yield such rewards.
Here are the games that made it to the top charts for last week:
