The new year is off to a fairly unsurprising start in the UK weekly sales chart. FIFA 18 has reclaimed the top spot from Call of Duty: WWII, and we see PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds nip into the top 10 at 7th, but other than that, there isn't an awful lot out of the ordinary this week.
Perhaps the most interesting nugget of information to be gleaned from this is that Grand Theft Auto V, which sits pretty in 3rd, has never once left the all formats top 40 since it released. That's 225 weeks in the charts, 191 of which were within the top 10. Astonishing.
What do you make of this week's top 10? Take a look below, then let us know your thoughts in the comments.

GOOD OLD FITBA
There is never anything out of the ordinary here.
When PUBG is eventually ported over to PS4 I’m willing to bet that will top the charts for at least a few weeks.
Surely by now GTA V must hold the record for being in the charts for 225 weeks and for also being in the top 10 for almost 200 weeks!?
GTA V is a juggernaut. I really like Rockstar, but don't like the fact that they didn't release any single-player dlc for GTA V, the same will happen with Red Dead Redemption 2.
Sigh, Undead Nightmare was really awesome.
It looked like Just Dance 2018 was heading down again after the holiday bump but now it got a smaller bump back to 28. Will it keep hanging on in the charts like JD2017 and the others did?
Still not bought GTA 5 and probably never will.
