A lack of new releases mean that BioShock: The Collection maintained its place at the summit of the UK sales charts this week, fending off PES 2017: Pro Evolution Soccer for a second term. Destiny: The Collection was the only new entry in fourth, with most fans of that series locked into the PlayStation Store these days.
Overwatch dropped down into fifth, as Rocket League, Fallout 4, and Grand Theft Auto V continued to do the business in the spots immediately behind. Meanwhile, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End continued to stretch its legs in 10th position, though its time in the Top Ten may be about to come to an end, unless Sony can find a way to give it another pre-Christmas boost.

Do they count U4 bundled w/ the Slim, or did you guys not get that bundle over there?
I don't think they'll be pushing U4 at all since that game will probably stay in the Slim bundle all holiday and be used to sell the Slim. I suspect Tomb Raider and FFXV are the games Sony pretends are exclusive this holiday, with RotTR being bundled w/ the Pro since it's the game that seems to offer the most Pro options for both 1080p and 4k tvs.
I would if Skylanders will get a Slim bundle w/ the Crash figure, no point bundling that game with Pro, but it might be a good way to get families to buy a PS4 w/ Wii U dead and no NX in sight. Not sure what X1S will have but you can't beat an exclusive Crash bundle. Would make a nice under the tree present for the family, and they usually price those to sell, not like $449 FFXV Slim. We got DI2 PS3 for about $170, making the PS3 effectively only $100. A $299 Slim w/ a $80 Skylanders bundle would be pretty sweet.
@rjejr I think some retailers are bundling Uncharted 4, but it's not an official bundle here like in the US. They've really done a good job in the UK building promotions around U4, though, and keeping it high in the charts.
They're going to really promote Watch Dogs 2, Call of Duty, Skylanders, and Final Fantasy XV this Christmas I think.
Expect FIFA to dominate the chart for the next few weeks.
Looks about right. And yes, @PlaytendoGuy, that will certainly happen.
@get2sammyb "They're going to really promote Watch Dogs 2"
My brain doesn't acknowledge WD2. I'm just sure why, I have nothing against it, I just keep forgetting it's a thing. Like Sony and The Last Guardian.
I know you dont care, but I wish Nintneod would get around to revealing NX so other companies can reveal their games, so I can see if games like Skylanders at least make it. Or if Lego Dimensions has last years game ported. Or Yooka-Laylee, which despite getting a PS4 port I'll still buy on Wii U just b/c. Unless Sony gets mean and gives it away w/ PS+, or offers some discount. Not that Wii U is a threat but NX might be going forward. If Nintendo unveiled it.
