Top 10 UK Sales Chart: Burnout Paradise Remastered Beats Kirby Star Allies In Debut Week

Burnout Paradise Remastered has entered the UK physical sales chart at No.1, according to sales monitor Chart-Track. For the week ending March 17, the racing game was the best-selling boxed game in the UK, with fellow new entry Kirby Star Allies debuting at No.2.

Second place is still an impressive finish for the Nintendo Switch platformer: it's the most successful launch ever in the UK for a Kirby game, with the previous record of No.15 jointly held by 3DS titles Kirby Triple Deluxe and Kirby: Planet Robobot.

Below the two new games it's a familiar story in the top 10. FIFA 18 rises one place to No.3, while Grand Theft Auto V (No.4) and Mario Kart 8: Deluxe round out the top five. The only other new entries for this week are the current-gen version of the Devil May Cry HD Collection, which debuts at No.13, and fantasy RPG Beast Quest, which manages a No.35 finish in its first week on sale.
