Boy reportedly pissed
The King has been dethroned. After a solid five weeks stood atop the UK Charts, Sony’s open-world epicGod of Warhas been usurped by the chin-stroking drama of Quantic Dream’s sci-fi soap opera,Detroit: Become Human.
Kratos and Boy came under heavy attack this week from a glut of debuts, with Microsoft’s survival sequelState of Decay 2and long-awaited re-releaseDark Souls Remasteredsnapping up the number two and number three slots, respectively. Electronic Arts’ FIFA ’18 still holds fast at number four.
In another amazing move, Blizzard’s arena-shooterOverwatchmade an incredible leap from number 40 all the way up to number seven. This is no doubt thanks to the ongoing anniversary celebrations, which included a free weekend, and had retailers offering various discounts to celebrate the shooter’s second birthday.
It’s definitely been an interesting week, but I wouldn’t countGod of Wardown and out just yet. Tune in next week to see if David Cage’s glass casket of emotion can hold on to the premier position, which is a very hotly contested spot right now.
