2019 has been the turning point in the sale of physical video game sales in the United Kingdom.

However, the effects of several games remain prominent in the traditional market, too This has been the best-selling video game in the UK in 2019.
First place, as Gfk Chart-Track once said, it was prepared for FIFA 20, an annual sports delivery compiled by EA Sports. The title managed to sell 1.5 million copies, somehow less than the 1.9 million that were able to sell the previous delivery at the same time.
In the second place it's one of the sagas we have year after year, and it's nothing more and nothing less than today's Call of Duty: War of War, a reboot of the plot created by infinity Ward that takes us back to the present age. During this time, the title managed to sell 1.19 million copies, putting the total under FIFA 20.
