UK charts did not go far from the worldwide thought. Players in this country could not appreciate Pokémon Scarlet and Violet potential, while FIFA23 is on top. This series made by EA continues to win new awards and welcome numerous players.

Despite an outstanding opening for Scarlet and Violet, which was noticed as record-breaking, the scores began to drop right when the first players entered the games. Nintendo stays slightly aside from top places this week, while its game continues to fall.

Meanwhile, Sonic Frontiers is still on the top-10 list. This Black Friday seller offered a great deal for those who love this game and are ready to go to the Switch with it.

PS5 turned out to be the most profitable console this time of the year, bringing 38 percent income. The second place belongs to Switch with 36 percent profit. Xbox earned 14 percent of total sales during Black Friday, and PS4 had 11 percent.

However, Nintendo fans can relax for a while, since there are numerous games that are still in the chart with stronger positions. The names like Nintendo Switch Sports, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and Minecraft are still on top. Games like Splatoon 3 and Animal Crossing: New Horizons are expected to go down in the chart, squeezed out by new titles. However, they still have chances to change the situation during this holiday season, becoming their favorite present for Christmas.

The UK list starts with FIFA23, which is an obvious winner here. It is followed by Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II. The third place belongs to God of War: Ragnarok. The Mario Kart 8 Deluxe game is in 4th place, while Pokémon Violet is in the 5th. Next on the list is The Callisto Protocol, followed by Pokemon Scarlet in the 7th place. Classic Nintendo games like Nintendo Switch Sports, Sonic Frontiers, and Minecraft close top-10 chart.
