It’s quite a busy week for the UK box office chart, with several new entries making the top ten. First up, of course, is Princess Peach: Showtime! comes in at number three. A respectable debut, certainly, though it wasn’t enough to beat out EA Sports FC 24 for first place and Capcom’s new action RPG Dragon’s Dogma II at number two.

The other newcomers are Rise of Ronin at number five and Alone in the dark at number six. Overall, considering how long FC 24 has been available at this point, it seems a shame that none of the newcomers have been able to knock it off its perch. Maybe next time, huh?

Other notable changes this week include the complete absence of Unicorn Overlord along with Mario vs. Donkey Kong which dropped to number twenty nine. Meanwhile, It Takes Two saw a healthy increase in sales to climb to number twelve, while Final fantasy The fever seems to have gripped Switch owners to bring Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy VIII Remastered – Twin Pack back into the top ten.

Here’s your look at this week’s top 40 in full, with platform analysis for all titles available on other consoles in addition to the Switch:
