UK Game Charts: Grand Theft Auto 5 Returns to Number One

After several successive weeks at the number one position, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare was displaced by Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto 5 in the recent Gfk Chart-Track sales charts. The open world crime drama returned to dominance as the former saw its sales drop following the post-Christmas season.

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare had its sales reduce by 61 percent for a second place position. FIFA 15, in third place, had a 51 percent reduction in sales. There haven’t been any new releases in the past few weeks with Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker debuting at 16th place. To see Grand Theft Auto 5 manage the number one spot yet again is truly astonishing.

Far Cry 4 was at fourth place, followed by The Crew and Assassin’s Creed: Unity so Ubisoft can at least rest assured of its standings in the charts. Minecraft PlayStation Edition and Xbox Edition, Destiny and Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor rounded out the rest of the charts.
