FIFA 18 has finished top of the UK physical chart in its first week on sale, sending sci-fi shooter Destiny 2 down to No.2. EA's football sim is consistently popular in the UK, and this year looks to be no different with another No.1 in the bag for the week ending September 30.
However, according to GamesIndustry.biz--which cites sales monitor Chart-Track--physical sales are down 25% compared to FIFA 17's launch. This follows a trend we've seen over the past year with games like Call of Duty: Advance Warfare, Watch Dogs 2, and Dishonored 2 all selling less than their respective predecessors. It should of course be noted that FIFA 18 launched on a Friday as opposed to the series' usual Tuesday slot, meaning this year's title had less time in which to rack up sales.
Chart-Track also reports that only 1% of FIFA 18's sales came on Nintendo Switch, with 60% going to PS4 and 37% Xbox One. The Switch version has seemingly suffered low stock at many retailers, however, which no doubt hindered the port's chances.
