UK Sales Chart: Grand Theft Auto V Back in 1st, Devil May Cry Definitive Edition Debuts in 5th

Most likely due to the release of Online Heists last week, Grand Theft Auto V ended the streak of new IPs topping the chart, rising 49% to finish at #1. This marks the 8th week for GTAV in first place, but the record for a game in the series still belongs to Vice City for PlayStation 2, which stayed at the top for 10 weeks.

Elsewhere, the previous #1, Dying Light, fell to 2nd, while new releases DmC Devil May Cry: Definitive Edition and Sniper Elite 3: Ultimate Edition debuted in 5th and 10th, respectively.

Here’s the top 20 selling retail games in the UK for the week ending March 14, 2015, according to GfK Chart-track:

1. Grand Theft Auto V (up 49%)
2. Dying Light (down 43%)
3. FIFA 15 (up 1%)
4. Minecraft: Xbox Edition (down 1%)
