The latest UK charts data is in, and we have a few new releases this time to highlight. First up, Minecraft Dungeons II<\/a> lands at number 2 for its debut, just behind EA Sports FC 27<\/a>. The new title comfortably sold the most on Switch 2, garnering 70% of the platform split.<\/p>\n

Next, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition<\/a> received its own physical release on 1st October, so it too has entered the charts at number 25. A good result considering Nintendo was pretty quiet about its release.<\/p>\n

Another Switch 2 physical is Lies of P: Complete Edition<\/a>, which performed a little better than Xenoblade to land at number 22. Lots of folks are thankful for the full cartridge on this one, so it’s nice to see it in the charts.<\/p>\n

And finally, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond<\/a> has climbed back up the charts to land at number 9 this week. It was missing for a little while, but thanks to some discounts here and there, it came back last week and is now performing surprisingly well. It’ll be interesting to see if it can maintain a presence in the lead up to Metroid Ravenous<\/a> in January ’27.<\/p>\n

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