May ends with Miles Morales triumph over bio-mutants: here are the latest sales figures for video games from the UK

We are here, like every week, a talk about the latest sales figures for video games directly from UK. This time, the youngest Marvel wall climber takes the top spot. We talk as always about Spider-Man: Miles Morales, which conquers the summit for the second time this year. The game received a price cut of up to thirty pounds for the PS4 version at some retail chains. The result was a 104% increase for the PS4 version and, more surprisingly, 175% for the PS5 version. But there is also a debut to talk about.

Changing (bio) expectations

As for the new video games coming out, the rookie of the week, Biomutant, he has to settle for the silver medal in sales figures in spite of himself. As for the physical format, which we always rely on, 71% went to the PS4 version, 28% to the Xbox One version and 1% to the PC format. Data for the digital format can only be found later in the week. As for the rest of the ranking, Sony consoles for once boast a more massive presence, starting already from the bronze medal.

Let’s start with the third place, The Last of Us: Part II, which finds itself in third place among the most loved video games by British players thanks to discounts that have changed its sales figures.

Among other Sony exclusives we have Ghost of Tsushima which sees him seventeenth (with a 604% increase) e God of War in thirty-seventh place (95% more). Another game, although not exclusive, is the “face of the next-gen” Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, which is in fifth place with an increase of 196%.
