Must read

We’re almost back to normal with the UK Charts following a few delays recently, and this week marks the debut of Ubisoft’s divisive Star Wars Outlaws, which managed to beat the competition and claim the top spot.

By comparison, Emio – The Smiling Man: Famicom Detective Club hasn’t made much of an impact upon its debut, settling in at number 22 behind the likes of Mad Max and Bluey: The Videogame. Were we expecting it to storm to the top given its niche appeal..? No, of course not. This is about what we had anticipated from the game’s initial performance.

Elsewhere, Hogwarts Legacy has climbed back up the charts to nab the silver medal this week, while Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is still chilling out in the top 10, despite a slight drop from number 2 to number 6.

Here’s a look at this week’s top 40 in full, with platform breakdowns for all of the titles available on other consoles alongside the Switch:
