GTAV back on top of the UK charts

Rockstar's blockbuster makes it 8 weeks at number one as it climbs back on top of Dying Light.

Techland's Dying Light only managed one week in first spot on the UK charts as Grand Theft Auto V climbed back to number one this week. That makes it 8 weeks in total at number one with two more weeks needed to tie the franchise record set by GTA: Vice City with ten weeks back in 2002.

An interesting note is that Dying Light outsold GTAV on both PS4 and Xbox One and that it was the old-gen versions (most notably Xbox 360) that carried GTAV to number one in what must have been a very close battle.

Elsewhere re-releases did well with Ninja Theory's DMC Devil May Cry - Definitive Edition on PS4 and Xbox One entering at number 5 and Rebellion's Sniper Elite 3: Ultimate Edition getting tenth spot.
