According to the latest GfK data, the latest installment of the popular Xenoblade Chronicles franchise, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 was last week\u2019s best-selling boxed video game in the UK.<\/p>\n
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 launched on July 29, 2022, and managed to become the biggest launch in the series, beating its predecessor, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 by a very small margin. All three games on the Nintendo Switch sold a similar number of units with Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition being the console\u2019s third biggest launch. <\/p>\n
While Xenoblade Chronicles 3 was the best-selling game in terms of units sold, when it comes to generated revenue, both Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 generated more money during their first week. However, it is worth noting that Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Special Edition wasn\u2019t ready when the game launched. The special edition would have had a bigger price tag which would likely have generated more revenue. <\/p>\n
It is worth mentioning that while the Xeno series is a popular game on a global scale, it is a niche series in the UK. Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is the fifth biggest Switch launch of 2022 in the UK, behind Pok\u00e9mon Legends: Arceus, Nintendo Switch Sports, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, and Kirby and The Forgotten Land, however, it did manage to outsell Mario Strikers: Battle League Football in terms of first week sales.<\/p>\n
Horizon: Forbidden West came in second this week with its week-on-week sales increasing by 118%, driven by PlayStation 5 bundles that featured the game. <\/p>\n
Merge Games\u2019 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder\u2019s Revenge charted at No. 8 with 67% of the sales on the Nintendo Switch platform. <\/p>\n
Finally, Digimon Survive came in at No.10 and Live A Live for Nintendo Switch went from No.6 to No.23 with its week-on-week sales dropping by 64%. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
