FIFA 20 has recorded the biggest physical launch week sales of 2019 in the UK, taking the crown from Borderlands 3.
Physical sales of EA‘s game were down 7% compared to FIFA 19’s launch week, according to GamesIndustry.biz.
The PS4 version of the title accounted for 61% of launch week sales, the Xbox One edition for 38%, and the Nintendo Switch ‘Legacy’ version for 1%.
Other new entries in the top 40 last week included Square Enix’s Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age at No.11, Bandai Namco’s Code Vein at No.13 and, Focus Home Interactive‘s The Surge 2 at No.35.
Physical game sales are down 15.5% in the UK year-to-date. A total of 816,985 boxed games were sold at UK retail last week, which is less than FIFA 18 alone sold during its launch week in 2018.
