Iron Man VR jets into second place
Naughty Dog’s grim end-of-the-world adventureThe Last of Us Part IIhas successfully retained the top spot of the UK Charts for the third week running, fending off the week’s solitary physical release, Sony’sMarvel’s Iron Man VR, which made its debut at number two.
As reported by GamesIndustry.biz, the selling-off of discounted Nintendo 3DS stock continues at retailers across the U.K., which results in Square Enix’Bravely Second: End Layernestled comfortably at number four, while Nintendo’sAnimal Crossing: Happy Home DesignerandChibi-Robo! Zip Lashboth re-entered the charts at numbers 13 and 34 respectively. Strange days.
In regards to more modern releases, a sales spike has seenAnimal Crossing: New Horizonsclimb to number three, while THQ’s remakeSpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrateddropped out of the upper echelon after just one week, ultimately resting at number 12.
As Britain is currently in the process of re-opening its high street once again, (despite science desperately advising the contrary), it will be interesting to see how the return of retail alters the status quo of the charts going forward. Needless to say,The Last of Us Part IIis unlikely to feel anysignificantthreat until the release of Sony’s ownGhost of Tsushimaon July 17.
