\"LEGO<\/a> Image: Nintendo Life<\/p>\n

Yesterday’s bank holiday Monday meant that the UK charts are coming in a little later than expected this week, but here they are, and we’ve got a whole podium of newbies!<\/p>\n

Nintendo’s latest managed to nab one of those podium spots, of course, with Yoshi and the Mysterious Book<\/a> debuting in third. Forza Horizon 6<\/a> presented an unusually high ranking for Microsoft in second, but it wasn’t enough to beat Mr. Vengeance himself, as LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight<\/a> claimed the top spot. How about some more news on that Switch 2 version, eh?<\/p>\n

This shake-up at the top has meant that Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream<\/a> slipped down to seventh this week, while last week’s S2 bump for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle<\/a> was clearly a temporary one, with the game being bolder chased from second all the way down to 17th.<\/p>\n

Here’s the full top 40, with platform breakdowns for games available on Switch, Switch 2, and other consoles:<\/p>\n
