Gfk’s latest physical sales charts in the UK are available, and WB Games’ Hogwarts Legacy is back on top. The open-world action RPG dropped to second place last week following the release of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. However, thanks to the recent Xbox One and PS4 versions, it’s once again on top.

Furthermore, the current-gen versions have done extremely well, becoming the fourth biggest releases of the year. It’s ahead of Dead Island 2 but behind Jedi: Survivor and Resident Evil Remake (as per Games Industry). As for Respawn Entertainment’s sequel, the physical sales dropped by 68 percent week-on-week. However, its launch sales were up by 30 percent over Jedi: Fallen Order, thanks to digital sales.

Dead Island 2 also saw its sales drop by 51 percent, as it moved to third place. As for the other recent release, Mojang’s action strategy Minecraft Legends, it’s still in 10th place. With The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom out this week, its sales should be interesting after all the hype.

Check out the top-ten best-selling physical titles in the UK for the week ending May 6th below.
