NBA 2K20, a simulation title of a decidedly American sport, has debuted on top of weekly sales charts in the UK. GamesIndustry reports that in spite of the game’s chart-topping debut, its first-week sales are still almost a third lower than concurrent figures for last year’s NBA 2K19.
Much of the top 5 has changed, in fact. While last week’s top 5 saw four debutants, only one of those remains in the top 5, and only two in the top 10. Astral Chain topped charts last week, but has dropped down to 11th place. Control, which debuted in fourth place, is now at No. 14. Wreckfest, which occupied second place last week, has dropped down to the 10th spot. Only Man of Medan has retained its place from last week, coming in at No. 3.
In second place is Spyro Reignited Trilogy, which has seen a significant jump owing to its Switch release, with the Switch version making up 92 per cent of last week’s sales for the game. However, its Switch debut has managed to sell less than 10 per cent of what it did when it debuted on the PS4 and Xbox One last year.
