The boxed-video game software charts have come through for the largest video game market in Europe, the United Kingdom, for the week ending 31st December, 2022. The best-selling video game during the tail end of 2022 was Sony Santa Monica’s God of War Ragnarok which presumably shot to No.1 due to an influx of PlayStation 5 hardware bundles around the Christmas period. All in all there were eight Nintendo Switch games in the top ten this week including Sonic Frontiers and Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Here’s the GfK UK Boxed Top Ten for the week ending 31st December:
| Last Week | This Week | Title |
|---|---|---|
| 3 | 1 | God of War: Ragnarok |
| 1 | 2 | FIFA 23 |
| 4 | 3 | Mario Kart 8: Deluxe |
| 5 | 4 | Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 |
| 5 | 5 | Pokémon Violet |
| 6 | 6 | Nintendo Switch Sports |
| 8 | 7 | Pokémon Scarlet |
| 12 | 8 | Animal Crossing: New Horizons |
| 10 | 9 | Minecraft (Switch) |
| 7 | 10 | Sonic Frontiers |

I like GoW Ragnarok how you play as Kratos as well as Kratos and Freya’s son and secondary protagonist Atreus.
