NetherRealm Studios set quite a few records when it released Mortal Kombat X recently. Not only was it the biggest launch in the series’ history but it also became the fastest selling title of the franchise in the UK.

This week, Mortal Kombat X managed to hold its own in the sales, according to Gfk Chart Track. Grand Theft Auto 5 is still in second place, thanks to monumental sales from its PC release and for the most part, this week’s top ten doesn’t look too different.

Battlefield: Hardline is in third place followed by Minecraft: PlayStation Edition, the latter seeing increased sales for the PS4 due to a recent bundle. FIFA 15 is in fifth place while Minecraft Xbox Edition is in sixth, followed by Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. Techland’s Dying Light still holds a spot in eighth followed by Borderlands: The Handsome Collection and WWE 2K15.
