Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon Tops UK Charts, Beating Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
The latest UK Charts reveal that FromSoftware’s Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon has made an impressive debut, securing the number one spot in this week’s rankings. The game managed to surpass popular titles such as Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
This successful launch marks a promising comeback for FromSoftware, demonstrating that the company’s expertise extends beyond its acclaimed Dark Souls, Elden Ring, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice franchises.
Another new entry in the charts is Immortals of Aveum by Ascendant Studios, landing at number twenty-one. While it may not have achieved a strong start, the fantasy first-person shooter has received generally positive feedback, suggesting it may gain momentum over time.
Aside from these new releases, there are no significant surprises in the top forty. Pikmin 4 has dropped several positions as expected, while LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga has once again climbed into the top ten, claiming the sixth spot.
