The weekly UK chart of the most popular games has just been released and to few people's surprises Bethesda's new Fallout game is top of the chart.
Fallout 4 released to great fanfare after Bethesda made the gamers wait for years for any sign of its actual existence, and beat out the other new releases of the week to claim top spot. It even surpassed its predecessor New Vegas by having its launch sales at 213% more than the 2010 hit. It also beat out the record for concurrent players on Steam with 470,000 players logged as playing at once and over 1.2 million owners of a copy of the game on day one.
Although full figures of all sales haven't yet been released, Bethesda did say they'd produced and shipped 12 million copies of the game in preparation for the launch. Let's hope nowhere ran out of copies.
