In spite of its late launch, the survival horror remake topped the monthly charts, with Hogwarts Legacy coming in at No. 2.
GSD has released its latest data for physical and digital software sales in the UK for the month of March (via GamesIndustry), and Capcomâs acclaimed remake of Resident Evil 4 has topped proceedings. In spite of having launched late in the month, it was the best-selling game of the month in the region. Sales werenât as strong as what Resident Evil Village and 2019âs Resident Evil 2 managed, but it did outpace 2020âs RE3 remake. 65% of its sales came on PlayStation, 20% on Xbox, and 15% on PC. Capcom recently announced that the game has sold over 4 million units worldwide already.
A couple of other new releases performed well as well. WWE 2K23 was the monthâs fourth best-selling game in the UK, though initial sales are still down 20% over last yearâs title. Meanwhile, Metroid Prime Remastered, which launched digitally in February, saw a physical launch in March as well. With physical sales alone, it entered the monthly charts at No. 9.
Elsewhere, Hogwarts Legacy took the No. 2 spot, having already sold more than some of 2022âs best-selling games, including the likes of Elden Ring and LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.
On the hardware front, the PS5 was the best-selling console of the month, as well as the yearâs first quarter
