It seems that the nostalgic buzz for Crash Bandicoot is not quite worn off, as the N.Sane Trilogy maintains its place at the top of the UK charts for a second week. This means Crash has achieved a feat unmatched by by any PlayStation exclusive since Uncharted 4 back in 2016.
Grand Theft Auto V (surely everyone must have a copy now) climbs a place to number two, usurping Micro Machines which falls to number five. Overwatch, in light of a recent sales bump, maintains its strong performance and rises to number three. Battlefield 1 has re-entered the top 10 thanks to a recent price drop, coming in at number six. With no new major releases, we are in the midst of a summer drought, which will be moistened with the release of Splatoon in a couple of weeks.
The full top 10 for the week ending July 8 is as follows:
- Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy
- Grand Theft Auto V
- Overwatch
- FIFA 17
- Micro Machines World Series
- Battlefield 1
- Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
- Call of Duty Infinite Warfare
- Rocket League
- Horizon Zero Dawn
