The latest UK charts data is in, and it’s another quiet week in the land of the Nintendo Switch. Indeed, while we have a few Switch-compatible games in the top ten, the first-party offering just doesn’t seem to be performing quite as consistently as it used to.
Shock, right? With the new Switch 2 on the horizon, it seems that folks may simply be opting to wait out the next several weeks in favour of the new, shiny console. Take Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, for instance: while the game has comfortably inhabited the top ten for weeks on end, it’s now sitting at number 12. Still impressive, mind you, but when both Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate and Mortal Kombat 1 are beating it, we have to imagine the sales have probably dropped off significantly.
It’ll be interesting to see just how things look come mid-June. We imagine several Switch 2 games will storm to the top of the pack, but with digital games priced lower than physical for the new console, we also reckon a good number of folks will skip boxed copies this time around.
Here’s a look at the full top 40 for this week, with platform breakdowns for all of the titles available on other consoles as well as the Switch:
