The latest UK physical games chart, compiled by market tracker GfK, brings a fresh entry for Nintendo platform holders: The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales debuts at number six, driven primarily by the Switch 2 release.
The chart — a snapshot of boxed sales across the UK — also records new debuts from EA Sports UFC 6 and shows established releases retaining strong positions.
Standout debut and platform split
- The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales opened at #6 on the UK physical chart, with 57% of its boxed sales coming from the Switch 2 edition, 40% from PS5, and 3% from Xbox Series.
This performance gives the game a notable launch-week footprint on Nintendo’s latest hardware.
Paraphrased chart observations
- The report notes that The Adventures of Elliot is the most significant new release for Nintendo fans this week, registering a majority of its initial sales on Switch 2.
- EA Sports UFC 6 entered the top 10 in its first week, placing one position ahead of Elliot’s debut.
- The top three remained occupied by 007 First Light, EA SPORTS FC 26, and Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, which continued to perform strongly in physical retail.
Broader chart context and notable platform splits
- Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition showed a PC-led split (PC 59%, PS5 32%, Switch 2 9%) in physical sales.
- Pokémon Legends: Z-A continues to sell on both Nintendo systems, with 62% of boxed sales from Switch 2 and 38% from Switch.
- Other legacy and current-generation mixes include Resident Evil Requiem (PS5 48%, PC 26%, Switch 2 18%) and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild showing a 64% split in favor of Switch 2 versus 36% on Switch.
What this means for retailers and Nintendo platforms
The GfK data underlines that boxed sales still favour system variants for certain releases, and Switch 2 is already registering meaningful physical-market share for a range of titles.
For developers and publishers, the physical splits offer a clear view of where demand is concentrated across PlayStation, Xbox, PC, and Nintendo hardware.
The full UK physical top 40 was published by GfK this week; the chart provides granular platform breakdowns for each boxed release.
