God of War is doing very well for itself in the UK market, as it claims the No.1 spot for another week. A week ago, it bested The Last of Us Remastered's record of three weeks in pole position, and if it can stay put for one more, it'll match the original PS3 version of The Last of Us with a run of six weeks in first place.
It's been another pretty slow week for new releases, and the rest of the chart is looking rather unchanged. Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition debuted in third, but you may well be able to guess the rest of the chart. FIFA 18 has moved up, Far Cry 5 has moved down, Grand Theft Auto V is still hanging in there, and Call of Duty: WWII re-enters the top 10 in the wake of the Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 reveal.
Here's the latest top 10. As always, let us know what you think in the comments below.

Game of the Generation. Word up, son.
This game deserved it
@Neolit The queen v fight is brutal, the best I can do is chipping 75% of her health. And I already at level 8 near level 9.
Best game I've ever played. While the Last of Us has a more gut-punching story in my opinion, the gameplay of God of War is so good that this game as a whole surpasses it. And I love the Northern mythology. They saved all the real epic stuff for the sequels, but still this game is unsurpassed in its genre.
This has everything to win GOTY but ofcourse that price Will go to something stupid like a battle Royal game or something.
anyway congrats to mr barlog and his team for making such a record breaking Awsome game. They realy made the perfect game.
But exclusives are not important and don't sell that much, also single-player games with narrative are something from the past!!!
Anyway, God of War is a masterpiece and deserves all the great sales.

@Neolit I just beat her she was a pain in the ass but so worth it when you finally beat her. Oh and word up son.
@playstation1995 I like your posts
@Neolit Use Charge of White Bear and you'll have a much easier time beating her
Still playing. Thank you Sony.
@Neolit Lol yea I get what you mean, it took me a while to beat her. One mistake and you're basically dead. I'm not sure if different difficulty makes a difference, but her health pool was ridiculous on God of War experience.
Time to move along for the androids next week, Kratos.
Glad to see God of War is having so much success.
I'm also glad I got the plat in the game. Definitely worth the time and effort it took.
Oh look at that EA/Activision/Microsoft (delete as appropriate) make a great single player game and people will buy it, who knew?
@kyleforrester87 thanks playa.cant wait for e3 also.give me sly cooper 5 and syphon filter word up son
Expect Detroit or Dark Souls to be number one next week.
So Hyrule Warriors sold what...100 units? XD
Edit: Turns out the answer is yes it probably did
Still the best DW game this year though.
And look at DK sticking around far longer than it has any right to...
But damn. That God of War. Such a shame non-service games seem to be first party only now
I knew it would do well but I am impressed that it's doing this well. Definitely GOTY contender. I honestly went into it pretty blind but was blown away. The last time I was that impressed by a game was the Witcher 3.
There haven't really been any big games to challenge it before this week with Detroit and Dark Souls.
@playstation1995 Syphon filter word up son. 😁
@YummyHappyPills Totally agree sick of the unfinished service games. I love the old with a part 2 instead of a service. 🤮
@playstation1995 you seem like a happy guy!! And yeah a Syphon Filter would be absolutely awesome. Bring back Gabe!
@Flaming_Kaiser my favorite ps1 games ever word up son
@kyleforrester87 hahaha. Gaming is fun .and always enjoy life word up son word
@YummyHappyPills Any right to ??? Tropical Freeze is incredible
It's fantastic to see GOW do so well in the UK, along with the Switch re-releases, it's nice to see the 'UK has horrible tastes in games' trend break every now and then lol
I loved the Detroit demo so i hope that does well this week as well.
Look at that 4 out of 5 in the top 5 are single player focused.
