Movement is independently calculated against the 31 October 2026 UK physical Top 10, not the sometimes inconsistent preceding-week column in secondary reports. NEW means a new launch; RE-ENTRY means back in the Top 10. Publisher names follow the current chart labels. Artwork is promotional imagery sourced from publishers and official storefronts, including Mattel’s original Hot Wheels: Stunt Mayhem key-art release. Artwork is used to identify the charted games and remains owned by its respective rights holders.
Ocarina of Time walks straight into #1, pushing Call of Duty down to second. Almost three decades after the original, Hyrule still knows how to make an entrance.
Mario Kart World climbs to #4 and Switch Sports Resort sits at #5. Zelda isn’t the only Nintendo title in Britain’s physical Top 10.
Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee Remastered debuts at #9, while Hot Wheels Monster Trucks returns at #8. One week, two very different kinds of wrecking ball.
UK sales #1. Cross-platform signal #7. What’s the difference?
Our Full Transmission is an original, weighted four-source attention index, incorporating Steam, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo. A game appearing across several platform rankings can accumulate more points than a single-platform smash hit. The UK Sales Transmission measures something else entirely: the order of boxed games sold at UK retailers. Neither is an overall digital + physical sales table. That is why Zelda can top UK physical sales yet appear joint on points with other games in the separate index.

Evidence, method & corrections
Primary ranking: GfK/NielsenIQ UK all-formats boxed software chart (week ending 7 November 2026) as reported by Nintendo Everything and corroborated by VGChartz. A UK retail chart measures paid physical copies and omits downloadable sales. We calculate the movement badges from separately published charts for weeks ending 31 October and 7 November 2026, rather than relying on conflicting last-week position tags in some syndicated tables. This is independent CSPress presentation and commentary, not an official chart licence or an endorsement from GfK or any publisher.
Reporting rhythm: we update this page after the next completed UK chart becomes publicly available, usually early the following week. Each issue will state the week-ending date, keep its source credit and preserve earlier results rather than silently rewriting history.
