Spider-Man: Miles Morales is PS5's biggest launch game as Call of Duty grabs No.1

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War may have missed out on the top spot in its debut week, but it made up for it in week two. The Activision shooter claims No.1 in the latest UK boxed charts, despite a 27% drop in sales week-on-week.

No.2 in the boxed charts is FIFA 21. The football game has been discounted as part of early Black Friday sales, and as a result it surged 121% in sales week-on-week.
Down in third place is the PlayStation exclusive Spider-Man: Miles Morales. The game was one of the key launch titles for PlayStation 5, which also launched last week.
