When Days Gone hit the PlayStation 4 in April, it quickly became 2019?s best retail launch title in the UK. Nothing?s been able to take its crown since then, until Borderlands 3 came along. According to GamesIndustry.biz, Borderlands 3 landed on the UK charts last week to become ?the biggest boxed launch of the year.? For now, there?s no word on how well the latest Gearbox title performed overall, since digital sale have not yet been tallied.
Likely due to the prevalence of digital distribution, the long-awaited title didn?t sell half as well at retail compared to Borderlands 2 in 2012. Still, Borderlands 3 taking a top position on the UK charts for the week is nothing to scoff at, especially given the competition. Other new entries included Gears of War 5, eFootball PES 2020, and Greedfall. The new Gears installment hit the ground running, entering the UK charts at number two, with Konami?s PES 2020 rounding out the top three.
