Gearbox’s Battleborn has landed at the top of the charts during it’s first week of release but the chances of it retaining the top spot next week are practically zero thanks to a certain Mr. Drake arriving tomorrow.
Black Ops III sticks in second place and last weeks chart topper, Ratchet & Clank, falls to third. The Uncharted Collection re-enters the charts ahead of the release of the fourth game, whilst Xbox Owners are obviously feeling a bit left out of the Uncharted hype and have brought their console exclusive (ish) action adventure, Rise of the Tomb Raider, back in to the charts.
The games market slumped by 11% last week, partly due to the lack of new games but also due to the Achilles heel of video games – sunshine and warm weather.

It’s interesting to see the familiar names bouncing up and down, especially GTA V, who doesn’t own GTA V??!! Good to see the Ratchet and Clank game hasn’t been affected by the iffy reviews it’s film got.
