The much delayed Final Fantasy XV has made it’s debut at number two in the UK charts with just FIFA 17 keeping it from reaching the top spot. This is the second best launch ever for a Final Fantasy game with only the thirteenth entry in the series doing bigger numbers.
Both Pokémon games drop down the charts and the rest of the top ten jiggle around a little, with Skyrim making a surge back up the charts due to discounting. The biggest loser is Ubisoft’s winter sports sim, Steep, which crash lands all the way down at number twenty-four, only just beating another new entry, Super Mario Maker on 3DS.

I didn’t even realise Steep has been released. Ubisoft probably haven’t realised either judging by it’s entry into the charts.
