It may be the busy Christmas period on the High Street, but video game sales stumbled in the UK this week.

The top five games in the region all suffered a drop in sales and sat in the same positions as last week.

FIFA 15 sales were down 21 percent, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare down 27 percent, GTA V down 22 percent, Far Cry 4 down 13 percent and Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham down 29 percent.

With no new releases, it was only Ubisoft’s Just Dance 2015 and Activision’s Destiny that saw any significant movement up the charts.
