News:: Zelda: Breath of the Wild re-enters the Top Ten of the UK Charts

Looks like a lot of people unwrapped shiny new Switch consoles this Christmas, as the following days saw adventure title Zelda: Breath of the Wild leap ten places to re-enter the UK's Top Ten. Splatoon 2 also made Top Forty re-entry, now sitting at number 21.

Apart from this development, it was business as usually for the Top Five, which didn't budge an inch in the week between Christmas Day and the start of the New Year. Super Mario Odyssey managed to haul itself up another spot, while racers Gran Turismo: Sport and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe pushed back into the big leagues.

As January high-street sales come into effect and Christmas gift vouchers do the rounds, not much movement can be expected in the Top Five until 2018's first heavy-hitters -- namely Monster Hunter: World and Dragon Ball FighterZ -- arrive on the scene.

Regardless, given this week's sales boost for Super Mario Odyssey, Zelda: BOTW, Mario Kart 8 and Splatoon 2, the UK clearly just got a bevy of new Switch owners.
