Each Monday we we publish the UK charts from the team at GFK Chart Track. The charts will change a little in the coming weeks as they will soon take digital sales into the equation, and as you know, digital sales are huge in the United Kingdom. Here are the best-selling video games this week in the UK:

| 2 | 1 | FIFA 19 |
| 1 | 2 | Red Dead Redemption 2 |
| 3 | 3 | Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 |
| 4 | 4 | Super Smash Bros Ultimate |
| 5 | 5 | Battlefield V |
| 6 | 6 | Forza Horizon 4 |
| 8 | 7 | Mario Kart 8 Deluxe |
| 9 | 8 | Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy |
| 7 | 9 | Spyro Reignited Trilogy |
| 11 | 10 | Assassin’s Creed Odyssey |
Man, RDR 2 deserves top stop waaaaaay more than FIFA
Why? FIFA is huge outside of the US. I’m from Latin America, and people breathe FIFA because football is the most popular sport
Because FIFA is a microtransaction riddled mess that is the very definition of everything wrong with triple A games.
I have nothing against the sport itself and I wish microtransactions never existed in any fully priced retail game, but when UK gamers support EA’s greedy behavior they are telling EA that they want more MTs.
I promise if UK gamers decided to boycott FIFA for the next two releases EA would stop putting MTs in their games, problem is UK gamers have zero self control and lack common sense, just like how COD players are by far the dumbest gamers to ever exist by buying a worse product than the year before every damn year, that is the definition of insanity.
