The next-gen exclusives Demon’s Souls was the 6th best-seller while Godfall only ranked at 16. In third place, Spider-Man: Miles Morales’ sales were down by 56% to 2018’s entry, but 71% of its sales were for the PS5 ahead of its release. It’s boxed sales in the UK, however, was down by 64% in comparison to 2019’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. 18% of its sales were for the PlayStation 5 version even though that console won’t release for another week.Īctivision Blizzard’s Anna Malmhake did highlight that the latest Call of Duty did set a brand new record as their highest first-day digital sales worldwide. Still, the latest Assassin’s Creed game has doubled that of its predecessor, Odyssey. The pandemic has shifted a large number of sales to digital, so we will see if this still changes. Currently, digital sales are not included, so going by pure boxed sales, the latest Ubisoft entry was able to outsell the gaming giant. Valhalla got released a few days ahead, but it still is a huge surprise.

It was the first to outsell Call of Duty in the game’s United Kingdom release weekend. Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla has done something that no other game has done in 13 years.
