Resident Evil 4 Remake was the best-selling game at UK retail for a second week in a row, despite its sales dropping by 69% week-on-week.

Even with this decline, Resident Evil 4 was comfortably ahead of the next biggest seller, FIFA 23. A 34% rise in sales pushed the EA's football game up one place to No.2, knocking Hogwarts Legacy down to No.3.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 rose two places to No.4 thanks to a 58% boost in sales – one of many titles that benefited from discounts and promotions. In fact, GfK reports that 34 of the games in the Top 40 saw a week-on-week boost thanks to sales events.

The biggest beneficiary was Warner Bros' Gotham Knights, which re-entered the charts at No.6 after a 999% rise in sales.

Meanwhile, Super Mario Odyssey saw a 5% sales boost thanks to sales of the Switch hardware bundle and ongoing promotions for The Super Mario Bros Movie, which hits cinemas this Thursday.

Here is the GfK UK Boxed Top Ten for the week ending March 25, 2023:

Thank god, Resident Evil 4 Remake is absolutely amazing and should be played by everyone

Gotham knights is only £10 at Currys, probably why it's gone back up in the charts.

Gotham Knights - PS5 - Xbox Series X + free del + 3 months Apple services = £9.99 @ Currys | hotukdeals

Damn it was already permanently priced at £20. Let me check my local Wal-Marts to see if the US got some kind of cut too. I'll bite for $10.

200 I would guess so it got to around 2000 this week.

Howgarts is apparently 5000.
