Released in the week ending October 3, 2026, Minecraft Dungeons II opened at number two on the UK combined sales chart, with the Nintendo Switch 2 accounting for the bulk of first-week sales.
Mojang's Minecraft Dungeons II debuted at #2, with a platform sales split of approximately 70 percent on Nintendo Switch 2, 22 percent on PlayStation 5 and 7 percent on Xbox platforms.
That distribution underscores the continued retail strength of Nintendo hardware for first-party-adjacent and family-oriented action titles.
No. 1 on the chart for the same week was EA SPORTS FC 27 from Electronic Arts, retaining its top position.
Sony's Marvel’s Wolverine placed third, while Nintendo's Mario Kart World rose to fourth and Bandai Namco's Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve entered at fifth.
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond registered a notable placement at #9.
Retail sales for Metroid Prime 4 increased during the week, coinciding with public attention around Nintendo's Metroid Ravenous announcement.
The chart shows a diverse mix of recent releases and long-tail catalog sellers: The Witcher III: Wild Hunt GOTY Edition and The Witcher III: Complete Edition continued to chart in the top 20, and legacy Nintendo staples such as Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and Super Mario Odyssey remained present further down the list.
Other highlights from the top 40 include new and returning entries such as Pokemon Pokopia at #7, Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream at #8, Silent Hill: Townfall at #10 and several Capcom catalog entries—Resident Evil 3, Resident Evil 7: Biohazard Gold Edition and Resident Evil 2—holding positions within the chart.
