Summary
Star Fox opened at No. 1 in the UK boxed charts in its debut week, giving Switch 2 the top physical release of the period.
Retailers heavily discounted the game below Nintendo's digital price, a launch-week pricing push that appears to have driven boxed demand.
Rayman: 30th Anniversary Edition entered at No. 12 in its physical debut, with PS5 taking 56% of sales versus 44% for Switch.
The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales fell out of the top 40 after ranking No. 6 a week earlier, underscoring how quickly momentum faded for the niche title.
The result builds on earlier signs of a strong launch for Star Fox, whose physical sales reportedly nearly doubled Star Fox Zero and beat Star Fox 64 3D by 70%.
