Resident Evil 2 debuts at No.1 in UK charts (again)

Resident Evil 2 has debuted at No.1 in the UK charts, more than 20 years since it last managed the feat.
The original PS1 game launched in the UK in April 1998.
It's Capcom's biggest UK launch since January 2017 when Resident Evil 7 topped the charts. Resident Evil 2 didn't manage to beat the sales of that game (sales are around 18 per cent lower), but it's an impressive result considering this isn't a full new sequel. The data only includes physical game sales.
The game, which was revealed on stage at PlayStation's E3 press conference, sold best on PS4. In fact, Sony's platform accounted for 74 per cent of the sales.
It means New Super Mario Bros U's stay at the summit of the charts has ended. The Nintendo Switch game actually drops to No.4 following a 44 per cent drop in weekly sales.
