Beenox's remake of the iconic kart racer - Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled - has reclaimed the top spot on the UK Sales charts from Nintendo's titles, in the week ending on 13 July 2019.
Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled is followed by Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order, which released last week, exclusively for Switch. Another Nintendo title that dominated the charts over the last few weeks - Super Mario Maker 2 - has dropped from the top spot to the third place.
According to UKIE/GfK data, only 500 units separate Super Mario Maker 2 in third and Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled in the first place.
Many other games on the list enjoyed big boosts last week. This is a result of Amazon Prime Day sale, which helped Marvel's Spider-man to re-enter the top 10 list from No.21. Also, Rockstar's mammoth Red Dead Redemption 2 saw a 142 per cent increase in sales, which was more than enough to push it to the fifth spot on the list.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 and FIFA 19 saw the biggest increase in sales when compared to last week. Black Ops 4 numbers are higher for 310 per cent while FIFA 19 saw a 219 per cent increase.
Overall, 41 per cent more physical games were sold last week than the week before. Of course, as always, this data only counts retail copies, meaning that digital sales are not included. Here is the full UKIE/GfK Top Ten for the week ending on 13 July 2019:
