This article is over 5 years old and may contain outdated information

The western game denied both the FIFA and Call of Duty Franchises what would have been a solitary record for the most pre-Christmas weeks at the top of the charts. Both series are bound ate eight, and due to Red Dead Redemption 2’s intrusion in the duel, the tiebreaker did not come.

This is the second Christmas week ever at the top for Rockstar, following Grand Theft Auto: Vice City in 2002.

Interestingly, Battlefield V took advantage of the Holiday shopping and climbed up from position seven to fourth place. Additional stocking-stuffers were Super Smash Bros. Ultimate which loses a place, Spyro Reignited Trilogy, Mario Cart 8 Deluxe, Marvel’s Spider-Man, Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy and Forza Horizon 4 to complete the top-ten.

Below you can check out the charts for combined and individual platforms.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
