UK software sales for the week ending May 20, 2023
Posted on May 23, 2023 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch
The latest UK software sales chart is in for the week ending May 20, 2023, and Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is still seeing success.
Nintendo’s Switch title remains at the top spot even though it dropped by 73 percent week-on-week. While that sounds significant, this is actually typical for a game with big first week sales.
It’s worth noting that Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has surpassed Link’s Awakening on Switch and Ocarina of Time on 3DS to become the sixth best-selling Zelda game in UK history. That feat was accomplished after just two weeks on sale.
LEGO 2K Drive also debuted and comes in at #7. 31 percent of the game’s sales were on Switch. PS5, Xbox, and PS4 make up the rest – 37 percent, 18 percent, and 14 percent respectively.
