TitanFall Stomps Its Way To First Place In UK Charts

by on March 17, 2014
 

Titanfall fell straight into first place in this week’s UK charts, in a result which has surprised literally no-one.

The Xbox One’s price cut and TitanFall bundle seems to have been a winning combination, as Chart-Track reports that Xbox One hardware sales have increased 96% this week – with 70% of those sales being attributed to the Titanfall bundle.

Close on its heels is last week’s other major release, DARK SOULS 2 which sits at number 2 on 360 and 3 on PS3.

Last week’s other noticeable release – Yoshi’s New Island – sits at a respectable 10 in the all formats charts, and 12 in the individual formats. Last month’s Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze is still clinging on at no 39, and is looking to be one of the longest charting Wii U games – which is both equally impressive and depressing. While Xbox One hardware has had a strong showing this week, overall the PS4 multiplatform games are still outselling their Xbone counterparts. While interesting, next week will be the real test for both Titanfall and the Xbone’s staying power.
