Thanks to GamesIndustry, we have new insight into the UK gaming market for July 2022.
Console sales across all platforms saw a 16 percent overall dip compared to last month, though we should note that July has four weeks in it, while June had five. Switch is still the most popular console of the year ahead of the PS5 and Xbox Series X.
Looking at software sales, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 debuted at #13 after just one week. Keep in mind that Nintendo games may have charted higher if digital was included. Focusing strictly on physical sales, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga was the best-selling game. Nintendo Switch Sports, Xenoblade Chronicles 3, and Mario Kart 8: Deluxe would be at #3, #4, and #5 respectively.
