Modern Warfare 3- top selling game of 2011 in UK

Posted By | On 11th, Jan. 2012

UKIE has revealed the software sales charts for the entire year of 2011 for UK, and surprise- the highest selling game is not, contrary to what many expected, FIFA 12. No, the highest selling game of 2011 in UK was Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. With less than two months on the shelves, that’s impressive. This is the third year in a row that Call of Duty has topped this chart, with Modern Warfare 2 in 2009 and Black Ops in 2010.

FIFA 12 took the second place, and Battlefield 3 came in at number 3. Other not-so-surprising entires include Zumba Fitness- which topped the UK charts for several weeks before Deus Ex: Human Revolution came out-, Assassin’s Creed: Revelations, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Batman: Arkham City, at 4, 7, 5 and 10 respectively.

Just Dance 3 at 6, L.A. Noire at 8 and Saints Row: The Third at 9 rounded off the top 10.
