Capcom take a second week at No1 thanks to 'Monster Hunter: World'.


EA debut at No2 with 'EA Sports UFC 3' and this is exactly where 'UFC 2' debuted back in week 11, 2016 - held off the top spot by a second week at No1 for Ubisoft's 'Tom Clancy's The Division' (original 'UFC' debuted at No1 back in week 25, 2014 and this franchise has only ever been available for PS4/Xbox One). Outside of the Top 2 it's again the same 3 titles below with Activision Blizzard's 'Call of Duty: WWII' at No3, EA's 'FIFA18' at No4 and Rockstar/Take 2's 'GTA V' at No5. Bandai Namco's 'Dragon Ball Fighterz' drops from a debut at No2 to No6 this week. Square Enix have the only other new entry this week as 'Dissidia Final Fantasy NT' for PS4 debuts at No9 (5,000). This is the 3rd 'Dissidia' title in the series, with both previous iterations arriving on PSP only – 'Dissidia Final Fantasy' debuted at No10 in week 36, 2009 and 'Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy' debuted at No24 back in week 12, 2011.

[Brhoom]

Slay Capcom!!!

 

[Suw4rbox]

Go GTS Go. Fantastic hold. What happened to Forza Motorsport 7, not in top 40 again just like last week. Is it not being bundled anymore?

 

[Saint-14]

Great hold for MHW, 46% isn't really that big of a drop.

 

[Deleted member 8408]

Greece knows whats up.

 

[Acquiescence]

Monster Hunter World is the big break Capcom needed this gen.

 

[Deleted member 8196]

Monster Hunter is here to stay on home consoles.
Well done Capcom.

 

[Vaser]

Have a feeling MHW will end up being THE success story of the year.

 

[zomgbbqftw]

Genuinely great hold for MHW. Digital is going to be huge as well, I really hope GfK can cut a deal with Sony and Microsoft to get digital sales figures because right now we're missing ~40% of the UK software market.

I think this could end up becoming the most successful Capcom game of all time, 10m+ beckons.

 

[lordlad]

Dissidia released at a bad time. Most of the fighting games community are still hot over heels with DBFZ to notice any other fighters.

• Bomba
• Bad word of mouth
• End of an era, they should let the series die
• Only Tesco meal deals can save it now

Spoiler

Am I doing it right?

 

[Jarod McChicken]

So we have a number directly from GfK Chart Track for Dissidia ? When was the last time they did that ?

 

[cw_sasuke]

Impressive MHW hold - amazing.

 

[Vaser]

S-E should stick to rpgs, imo.

Imo itd have done well regardless had they gone with the old rpg structure. the 3v3 thing is just eh....

Also great to finally love a game that everyone else loves too.MH World is a beast. Already 80hours in.

 

[pswii60]

I wonder what EA Access' impact is on physical sales of games like UFC on XBO?

I say this because there's a generous 10 hour trial on EA Access, and also the guarantee of it hitting the Vault in just 6 months time.

Also the beta was bad.

 

[B.O.O.M.]

Great hold for MonHun

 

[Peek-a-boo!]

20 PS4 games, 11 Xbox One games, 7 Switch games and just the usual two 3DS games (Pokémon).

This time last year, the Xbox One had more titles in the top forty than it does now, and this only makes me realise that the Switch is having a knock-on effect towards the Xbox One whereas the PlayStation 4 largely remains unchanged.

And good going for Monster Hunter: World! The week-to-week drop is very, very good.

 

[Ryng™]

Monster Hunter for Xbox one at #4 during his second week is very impressive.

Disdidia sales seem good.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Go GTS Go. Fantastic hold. What happened to Forza Motorsport 7, not in top 40 again just like last week. Is it not being bundled anymore?

Click to shrink...

Forza Horizon 3 probably got a nice bump thanks to the XONEX patch, but it's still pretty crazy to have in the top 40 and Forza 7 outside of it.

 

[Marukoban]

S-E should stick to rpgs, imo.

Click to shrink...

Original Dissidia was a 2m seller iirc

 

[Kodama4]

Can we expect a similar drop for MHW in Japan as well? Between 40-60% would be pretty good hold I'd imagine

 

[weekev]

Switch games are gonna have enormous legs aren't they?

 

[ClarkusDarkus]

The Inpatient nowhere to be seen, We really do need VR support along with fully fledged games like RE7/Farpoint/Skyrim, Those wave shooters and 1/2 hour experience games aint gonna cut it no more.

 

[Deleted member 152]

46 drop is impressive. Strong word of mouth and continious buzz/steaming (twitch/youtube) with all the right marketing in play is only going to keep long legs and concurrent sales with this thing, and this is not adding the strong digital revenue from said regions. I can this being their number 1 sku at this promising rate, kudos to them!

 

[Vaser]

Original Dissidia was a 2m seller iirc

Click to shrink...

But it had rpg elements, right?

 

[Deleted member 8196]

16 (15) FORZA HORIZON 3 (MICROSOFT)

FH4 this year will fire up the UK chart.

 

[zomgbbqftw]

That would be an insanely good hold for a 1.3m opening week.

 

[Saint-14]

This is the second week Forza 7 is not charting btw, I wonder if Microsoft will drop it and just focus on the Horizon series.

Can we expect a similar drop for MHW in Japan as well? Between 40-60% would be pretty good hold I'd imagine

Click to shrink...

Probably not, the game had 95% sell through, big drops are expected.

 

[bombshell]

FH4 this year will fire up the UK chart.

In physical sales chart? Not with Game Pass launch.

 

[Deleted member 4976]

That is an incredible hold for Monster Hunter World. Damn, word of mouth is incredibly positive.

 

[WillySJ3]

Nice hold for MHW. FFXII did a re entry, any discount or promotion?

 

[Adventureracing]

Fantastic hold for MHW second week.

 

[Marukoban]

But it had rpg elements, right?

Click to shrink...

Yes but it's still fighting game.
I'm a fan of original Dissidia.
You can argue they should've chosen "better" direction for NT, but asking them to only stick to one genre is a bit overreacting.

 

[Kodama4]

Probably not, the game had 95% sell through, big drops are expected.

Click to shrink...

Oh I see, it's got stock issues, so where looking at a bigger drop then.

I was hoping DBFZ would hold a little higher than 6th but hopefully it's doing well digitally

 

[thuway]

Hopefully Monster Hunter World brings about more third person co-op action games. The space needs more competition and it's a shame that it took until now to get it in the public eye.

 

[Apex88]

Just imagine what sort of numbers a Fight Night would do in the UK with Anthony Joshua as the cover star. I know licensing is an issue, but at this stage I'd be happy with a handful of real fighters, and a fight creator.

 

[xrnzaaas]

This is the second week Forza 7 is not charting btw, I wonder if Microsoft will drop it and just focus on the Horizon series.

Click to shrink...

Drop it - I don't think so, they need all the exclusives they can get. Make it look and play more like Horizon - very likely.

 

[Deleted member 9971]

Monster Hunter World! \o/
Awesome to see it do so well the future of the franchise is very bright right now well with that i mean globally ofcourse :P

 

[MrTired]

Excellent hold by MHW, any figures for MHW?

 

[Majora85]

So much concern trolling about Forza 7. Should probably be more concerned about how Gran Turismo Sport is barely outselling a racing game that came out 13 months prior.

Am I doing it right?

 

[NSESN]

Can we expect a similar drop for MHW in Japan as well? Between 40-60% would be pretty good hold I'd imagine

Click to shrink...

70-80% like previous games, maybe bigger since PS4 games tend to have bigger drops than 3DS and Vita games.

Switch games are gonna have enormous legs aren't they?

Click to shrink...

Yeah, I think MK8, Odyssey and Zelda will stay in the top 40 for at least a year each, MK8 in particular I can see charting until after the Switch successor is released.

 

[Apex88]

Drop it - I don't think so, they need all the exclusives they can get. Make it look and play more like Horizon - very likely.

Click to shrink...

Of course it won't be dropped.

But I have been surprised how FM7 had more marketing focus than any previous motorsport release (from E3 to launch), but has gone off the radar in terms of events, DLC, bundles etc., after launch. It was the One X showcase, so it's even more surprising. Even now Horizon 3 is the bundled title, which accounts for it's chart position.

GT Sport seems to be ticking along around the 5k-10k mark per week.

 

[bombshell]

Dragon Ball FighterZ week-on-week drop was 64%.

UFC 3 debut down 52% compared to UFC 2.

It is less than 5k mark especially after knowing Dissidia figures. But Complete EU might be giving it ~15k sales per week. Which is okay

 

[OfficerRaichu15]

That's a nice hold MHW

I was looking forward to the inpatient, I loved until dawn and rush of blood, but the bad reviews have turned me off maybe that's had an effect on sales?

It's the second console effect.

If your a PS4 owner, it's an easy second machine, at a time when ordinarily, PS4 owners would be picking up a One S/X, if they have spare cash. I'm sure the Pro also has an effect, as that's once again cash that may have previously gone towards a rival brand to supplement their existing PS4.
