PS5 games are increasingly taking the top positions in the UK game sales rankings. It was no different in recent days.

There are still big problems with the availability of the PS5 in stores. As soon as the console appears in larger flashes on sale in the UK, you can immediately see the results of titles from the new Sony console jumping.
It turns out that last week, the exclusive PS5 triumphed on the British market, i.e. Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. The title in boxed editions was sold at about the same mintage as the Switch hits released this year, i.e. Monster Hunter: Rise and New Pokemon Snap. In the first days, the game was also 3 times better than Returnal, the last big PS5 exclusive.
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart wasn’t the only debut production last week. It also appeared in the sales ranking of boxed games on the British market Chivalry 2. Gra Torn Banner took 9th place, where it sold best on PS5 (41% of sales) and Xbox Series X / S (32% of sales). Another publishing house debuting on PS5, i.e. FFVII Remake Intergrade failed to enter the TOP 10 and took place 12th in the ranking.
We are dealing with a very strong drop in sales in the case of Biomutant. The game crashed last week from 16th to 40th place ranking in the UK. The title debuted on May 25 at number two on the bestseller list.
Check out the new Ratchet by the way were assessed by Polish editorial offices.
