UK Sales Charts: FIFA 21 Reclaims Top Spot, Cyberpunk 2077 in Eighth
Share:
Assassin s Creed Valhalla couldn t continue its stint at the top of the UK sales charts as FIFA 21 takes first place for the week ending 26th December 2020. The top 10 list of the biggest physical sellers across the United Kingdom contains the usual suspects for the past seven days, with Ubisoft s Viking RPG slipping to second while Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War takes up residency in fifth. There s no movement whatsoever for Marvel s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, once again in sixth place, but CD Projekt RED s Cyberpunk 2077 slips fairly significantly down to eighth. It was the third best-selling game across the UK last week.
UK Sales Charts: Assassin s Creed Valhalla Grabs Christmas Number One, Cyberpunk 2077 Slips to Third

The accolade might not be quite as celebrated as the UK singles chart (remember when The X Factor dominated that thing?), but Ubisoft must surely be pretty chuffed with bagging top spot in the UK gaming sales chart for Christmas time. Assassin s Creed Valhalla marks the first time both the franchise and publisher have been in first place for the week that includes 25th December. It moved up four places after recording a 66% increase in sales, while last week s top performer went in the opposite direction. The controversial Cyberpunk 2077 finds itself in third position as CD Projekt RED suffered an 80% drop in physical sales. That is fairly normal for big releases, but you have to imagine the negative press had some sort of impact on how many copies found their way into the hands of consumers.
