Capcom’s hotly anticipated Street Fighter 6 was released this past Friday to extensive critical acclaim and record player numbers on Steam. In the latest UK physical sales charts from Gfk, it debuted in second place but wasn’t enough to dethrone The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

The latter spends its fourth week at the number one spot and is the third best-selling Zelda title in UK history based on physical sales alone. Only The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (which ranked seventh in this week’s charts) and Twilight Princess are ahead of it. As for Street Fighter 6, GamesIndustry notes that 79 percent of sales were on PS5, followed by 13 percent on Xbox Series X/S and eight percent on PS4.

FIFA 23 is in third place, with sales down four percent week-on-week, while Hogwarts Legacy is in fourth, following an 11 percent sales decrease. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor dropped to sixth place with sales down seven percent, while LEGO 2K Drive fell to 18th after sales dropped eight percent. As for Daedalic Entertainment’s disastrous The Lord of the Rings: Gollum debuted in sixth place last week and has since dropped out of the top 40.
