Watch Dogs stays on top of UK charts

Still number one despite a massive drop in sales.
Mike Holmes 9 June 2014

Watch Dogs is still the best-selling game in the UK, despite the open-world hack-a-thon ending up on the end of an 81% drop in sales week-on-week (overall that represents an 84% drop on PS4/Xbox One and a 68% drop on PS3/Xbox 360).

Another way of looking at it though is that it's the first Ubisoft title to hold onto the UK top spot since 2012's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier.

Mario Kart 8 also saw a huge drop off, with 76% less sales, but it still retained a second place finish. This week's highest debut title was Square Enix's Murdered: Soul Suspect, which charted in third (and sold just 400 copies less that MK8).

NCSoft's new MMO, Wildstar, also debuted at No14, one place ahead of Nintendo's Tomodachi Life. Here's the GfK Chart-Track top twenty in full:
