Hope in humanity partially restored as Dishonored makes strong UK chart debut
And XCOM doesn’t do too badly either
Other highlights this week include XCOM: Enemy Unknown, which charts at a very respectable No. 7 and becomes publisher Take 2’s biggest selling title of the week, overtaking the mighty Borderlands 2. Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 appear at 3 and 5 respectively. Rather interestingly, Chart Track notes that even if sales of both versions were combined it wouldn’t be enough to chart the Pokémon sequels above Dishonored. Finally, Kinect-only Fable: The Journey limps in at No.37.
Here’s the Top 20 UK software chart in full:
1. FIFA 13
2. Dishonored
3. Pokémon Black Version 2
4. Resident Evil 6
5. Pokémon White Version 2
