The latest UK Charts data is in and Nintendo’s latest flagship title, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, has debuted at number 3, coming in behind Mario Kart World and EA SPORTS FC 26. The game performed considerably better on the Switch 2, making up 83% of the platform split with the original Switch.
According to The Game Business‘ Christopher Dring, physical sales for Prime 4 were down 15% when compared to Metroid Dread, though he calls this marginal at “just a few thousand units”.
Meanwhile, Octopath Traveler 0, which launched on the same day as Prime 4, almost didn’t even chart at all, coming in at number 37 with the majority of sales on the original Switch. Similarly, though Assassin’s Creed Shadows saw a slight bump up from last week to land at number 19, Switch 2 sales still lagged behind the PS5.
