According to the report by Gamesindustry, Naughty Dog’s latest PS4 game is Sony’s fastest-selling release this generation, 1% above Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End in 2016.

Debut sales were also 76% higher than those of the original The Last of US.

This is actually the biggest physical launch in the UK this year, at least so far, leaving the previous record-holder — Animal Crossing: New Horizon — in the dust, with 40% higher sales.

Speaking of Animal Crossing, it dropped out of the top ten for the first time, ranking 12th and selling 33% less than last week.

Ring Fit Adventure ranks second for the third consecutive week, even if its sales keep increasing (+31% since last week).

You can check out the top ten chart below.

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.
