Animal Crossing: New Horizons Tops The UK Sales Chart Once Again

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is at the top spot of the UK sales chart yet again. Accompanying the Nintendo beast comes PGA Tour 2K21 and EA Sports UFC 4 filling second and third place as of the week ending August 22nd, 2020.

Moreover, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is also joined by two of the big bad three games, which happens to be Grand Theft Auto V and FIFA 20 on the top ten UK sales chart.

Although Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is out of the picture, which happens to be one of the big bad three titles, Activision and Treyarch are gearing up to replace it with the social justice Trojan Horse that is Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War.

Moreover, as for Sony and Naughty Dog’s controversial title The Last of Us: Part 2, it has been off the top ten for more than two weeks. In other words, PGA Tour 2K21 out golfed the expert golfing game that is The Last of Us: Part 2 by snagging second place.
