The UK games market in May was driven by the launch of one particularly big Nintendo Switch game.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was comfortably the No.1 game in May (GSD data), and that’s without Nintendo sharing digital data with the GSD charts (Nintendo is the only major company that currently withholds these figures).
It’s the biggest Zelda game launch in UK history, and its lifetime sales have already surpassed most previous games in the series. It only sits behind 2006’s Twilight Princess and 2017’s Breath of the Wild.
