After debuting last week on top, Nintendo’s Kirby and the Forgotten Land holds on to to its position in UK physical sales charts ending April 2nd as per Gfk. Sales for the Nintendo Switch title fell by 43 percent week-on-week but as GamesIndustry notes, it’s the fastest-selling title in the Kirby franchise yet. For the UK, it’s currently the fourth-best selling Kirby title ever.
Despite a 22 percent sales drop, FromSoftware’s Elden Ring rose to second place in the charts while Pokemon Legends: Arceus managed third place after a nine percent sales drop. Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands sales dropped by 38 percent week-on-week, resulting in a drop from second to fourth place. Of course, digital sales aren’t factored in so stay tuned for more details on the same.
The rest of Gfk’s top ten for the week ending April 2nd looks pretty familiar with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe rising from 10th to sixth place, Gran Turismo 7 falling from fourth to seventh and Animal Crossing: New Horizons re-entering the charts at ninth place.
