Uncharted: The Lost Legacy has topped the UK sales charts for the second week running. Its victory comes as no real surprise given the quality of the product and its lower price point, but its success marks yet another week where a PlayStation 4 exclusive has come out on top.
Reports suggest that new Switch release Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle came very close to beating out Naughty Dog's latest, but Chloe and Nadine hung in there. Elsewhere, Yakuza: Kiwami actually made it into the top ten, settling in eighth. Everybody's Golf, meanwhile, entered in sixth. Not at all bad for either title.
Destiny 2 will no doubt smash the charts to pieces once it launches in just a couple of days, so you know what to watch out for when we do this all over again next Monday.

I love gooooold!
Edit: it says golf now...
Still surprised that GTv is in the top 5! Forza Horizon 3 in tenth? Is that in readiness for November? Otherwise, its not that different to what I would have expected. I have no doubt Destiny 2 will reign supreme for the next few weeks - at least until fifa comes out anyway...
Apparently from a revenue standpoint M+R beat out Uncharted but we are talking 40 dollars - 60 dollars. Still amazed that this game exists in the first place and I wonder what is the future of Uncharted?
Can't top the chloe
Well I did buy Uncharted day 1 and won't touch Rabbids. Maybe if I liked strategy games.
They're both excellent games. I had a great time with Lost Legacy (albiet it felt a bit to same-y to be considered a full uncharted game imo), and I'm loving Mario + Rabbids right now. It's probably my favorite Mario RPG since Bowser's Inside Story.
Good result for both games!
Rabbids did well considering many folks took it as an April Fools and Uncharted was half the price.
Just finished Lost Legacy. Great game. I plan on getting Mario and Rabbids sometime in the near future.
Great to see Everybody's Golf doing well on the charts.
Everybody's Gold?? I assume *Golf. I'm really glad seeing Uncharted still on top plus Yakuza Kiwami top ten
Whoops, obviously I meant to type Golf, not Gold!
I bought both Lost Legacy and Mario+Rabbids.
@AlejandroMora I'm sure most blokes wouldn't mind, though.
Nice to see Yakuza break the top 10 and hopefully The Lost Legacy's strong showing will mean more Uncharted spinoffs in the future.
PlayStation is just slaying it.
Uncharted, Crash and Yakuza- only on PlayStation.
I reckon we'll get a 1 billion software sale announcement sooner rather then later...
@ShogunRok Destiny will have to settle for second place- don't forget about Knack 2! It'll have an additional day of tracking, will be half the price and I don't think they share the same target audience.
I half-kid of course, but it would be amazing xD.
Yakuza in the top 10 is nice, I just got my steelcase edition. Also congrats to naughty dog
Totally addicted to ark split screen with my brother. We live in different provinces but thanks to share play two brothers can enjoy a fun game and each other's company.
Not surprising when the Switch just came out 6 months ago. I'm surprised Mario + Rabbids sold even that well, considering the somewhat niche genre and how weird the idea of a Mario and Rabbids crossover is.
@Fight_Teza_Fight don't forget about Everybody's Golf another system exclusive
@BAMozzy I doubt it, it'll be a lot promotion deals propping it up.
@Clay_Davis83 So it is! That makes 4.
Hoping to see King Knack on his rightful throne next week .
@KirbyTheVampire M+R sales don't surprise me. There arent many games on the Switch yet and Mario always sells great. Except Forza, all other games on the list have released on PS4.
Uncharted has surpassed Halo and Mario
@KirbyTheVampire Maybe... but this is still Mario. I'd be surprised if it didn't sell.
The PS4 has a way bigger install base and Uncharted was $20 less. No surprise here.
@Kidfried I suppose that's true. I can also see how Mario would make first-timers to the genre feel less intimidated by the idea of a strategy game than something like XCOM would.
I'm dying to start Mario + Rabbids, fortunately reviews indicate its very good. UC:LL is great, happy to see it and Yakuza doing well.
@EVIL-C It is a game that really sounds insane on paper but when you start playing it just works incredibly well.
Can someone put a bullet to the head of GTA 5? How is it constantly in the top 5?
