Most popular games in the UK in 2025 - London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com

Mario Kart World topped charts for months after the Switch 2 came out. Part of that is console bundles inflating the numbers, but Mario Kart was always going to sell regardless. Donkey Kong Bonanza performed well too, both games got good reviews and people actually bought them instead of just talking about them online. EA Sports FC 25 keeps showing up in sales data because football games always sell in the UK.

Stardew Valley Gets Free Switch 2 Upgrade That Doubles Coop

While many were battling big game service outages over the holiday, from Arc Raiders to Steam, I was battling Minecraft for the original Switch, which I bought for my kids because of the Mario add-on but which keeps crashing on startup. It's something fans have apparently dealt with for years, but I'm still shocked that a mash-up of two of the biggest franchises in gaming on the second-most-popular console ever is in such poor shape.

Switch 2 Game Ditches Game-Key Cards For A Physical Release, But It'll Cost More

Game-Key Cards have been divisive since they were first introduced, but the good news is that the full R-Type Dimensions 3 game will be on the Switch 2 cartridge. The bad news? You're going to have to pay a little bit extra for that side-scrolling shoot-'em-up, as the price is going up to €70. It's worth noting that those who already preordered the physical Special Edition will not see their price change.

Holiday Game Console Sales Just Flatlined As Prices Soar

Circana's Mat Piscatella reports that only 1.6 million new consoles were sold last month, including during Black Friday. That's just a few hundred thousand more than the 1995 low of 1.4 million. Perhaps just as surprisingly, the Switch 2 wasn't even the best-selling hardware in November. That honor went to the PS5, a console that's five years old and ended up not benefiting from the expected Grand Theft Auto 6 launch hype this year.

Baldur's Gate 3 Dev's Other Hit RPG Is Out For Modern Consoles

The Divinity series began with the decent enough action-RPG Divine Divinity in 2002, followed by the decidedly mediocre Beyond Divinity in 2004, which was slammed for its crappy story and lack of originality. Things didn't improve enormously in 2009 when Divinity II came out riddled with bugs, dragged down further by a poor Xbox 360 version, but they started to look up a year later when an improved and much-fixed re-release appeared and won people over.

Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Imprisonment Reviews: Great Action, Bad Levels

The hack-and-slash Warriors spin-offs on Nintendo Switch have been easy to skip.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment might be different. Early reviews suggest the Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom spin-off isn't just a must-play for hardcore fans but a decent action game that new Switch 2 owners should be paying attention to.
