We’ve reached the middle of September! As October inches closer every day, it’s always fun to see what the Brits are playing this week (hopefully not every Mario game ever).

10. Super Mario Odyssey

Platform: Nintendo Switch

Position Last Week: 15th

Look, I don’t have anything against Mario but when his catalog of 5000000000000 games consistently ranks in the t0p 10 section of the charts it gets a bit annoying yanno?

9. LEGO The Incredibles

Platforms: PC, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch

Position Last Week: 10th

LEGO The Incredibles managed to survive an exit from the charts but will it stay on the list now that its movie counterpart has come to a close?

8. The Elder Scrolls Online

Platforms: PC, PS4, Xbox One

Position Last Week: 27th 

The Elder Scrolls Online currently has an event going on where players can unlock a luxurious villa, a new mount, and a pony pet? Yeah, a pony as a pet. No wonder people are flocking to play the game.

7. F1 2018

Platforms: PC, PS4, Xbox One, Android, iOS

Position Last Week: 1st

Zoom Zoom.

4. Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy

Platform: PC, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch

Alright, this is where the ‘games that have appeared too many times on the UK Video Game Charts’ shenanigans ends. End of the line kiddos. Let’s get into the new releases.

3. NBA 2K19

Platforms: PC, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, iOS

Position Last Week: N/A

(Virtual) sweaty men dribbling balls to dunk into a hoop is the basic premise of NBA 2K19. A formula that has enabled 2K to emulate real-life basketball into their 20-year franchise. NBA 2K19 bags a respectable 3rd place for its debut.

2. Shadow of the Tomb Raider

Platforms: PC, PS4, Xbox One

Position Last Week: N/A

Lara Croft is back for another round of slip sliding around picturesque Mayan landscapes and this time she’s saving the world from the apocalypse. Shadow of the Tomb Raider sits at 2nd place for its debut.

1. Marvel’s Spider-Man

Platform: PS4

Position Last Week: N/A

Spider-Man has managed to garner 3.3 million copies sold in the first three days, beating close competitor God of War (3.1 million copies) making it the fastest selling PS4 game of all time. What’s more, Insomniac has managed to make more money than Homecoming which raked in $117 million at the box office whereas Spider-Man PS4 managed $198 million. Spider-Man sits at number one for a second week.
