Despite the debut of Super Mario Maker in second place, Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain continues to reign in the UK according to the latest games sales charts from Gfk Chart-Track. Sales have fallen 78 percent in the past week so it will be interesting to see where Kojima’s epic will stand when Forza Motorsport 6 debuts.

Avalanche Software’s Mad Max is in third place while Disney Infinity 3.0 managed fourth. Until Dawn actually dropped down to fifth place while Gears of War: Ultimate Edition is currently in sixth. Grand Theft Auto 5 celebrates a good 100 weeks in the top ten chart since debuting for PS3 and Xbox 360 in September 2013. LEGO Jurassic World, Minecraft: Xbox Edition and Minecraft: PlayStation Edition wrap up the remaining spots in the chart.

It should be worth noting that PS Vita platformer turned PS4 remake Tearaway Unfolded debuted at 33rd place.
