We had to give our eyes a little rub and pull a double-take as we opened this week’s UK charts data this morning. Is that… Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream in the top spot?
Yes, despite the series selling rather well on 3DS, there was a part of us that thought the gap until Living the Dream might have dampened enthusiasm a little, but no! The Switch life sim has immediately grabbed the gold in its debut week, even beating Capcom’s multi-platform original, Pragmata (for which only 13% of sales came from Switch 2).
These newbies mean that Resident Evil Requiem has slipped down to third, while Pokémon Pokopia has dropped all the way down to sixth. Hey, at least Marvel Cosmic Invasion has pulled in some fans after the physical finally launched last week!
Here’s the full top 40, with platform breakdowns for games available on Switch, Switch 2, and other consoles:
