Official UK game sales chart
Official UK game sales chart-May 2024
May 12, 2025 12:52 AM

  This week's ELSPA official UK game sales chart as compiled by Chart-Track saw Atari's movie-inspired Enter the Matrix debuting at number one and The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker falling from the top spot to position six. The arrival of the PC version of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City sent Rockstar's record-breaker back to number two this week, ahead of the company's other recent release, Midnight Club II.

  A little further down the chart, Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War for the Xbox made an impressive debut in the fourth position, while MotoGP 2 and WWE Crush Hour from THQ claimed positions 12 and 16, respectively, in their first week in stores. Elsewhere on the chart, movement only really occurred as a result of the new arrivals, although it's perhaps worth noting that Grand Theft Auto III is finally showing its age a little, coming in at position 20 in its 65th week in the UK sales chart.
