It managed to hold off Grand Theft Auto V, which retains second place due, in part, to its recent release on PC.

No key new releases means the chart shows a familiar composition, with the likes of FIFA, Battlefield Hardline, and Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare featuring in the top ten. Minecraft sales on PS4 jumped 172%, thanks to a PS4 bundle deal.

The full top ten follows:

  1. Mortal Kombat X
  2. Grand Theft Auto V
