Now Playing: Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Review – Fear Itself
Another factor is that Jedi: Survivor has a more expensive price tag than its predecessor on average, which has likely led to fewer sales at retail. On average, Jedi: Survivor retail copies sold for around £10 more than Jedi: Fallen Order.
Since worldwide digital sales haven’t been revealed for Jedi: Survivor just yet, it’s unclear how it’ll stack up against Fallen Order. According to GfK, 82% of boxed Jedi: Survivor sales were on PS5, while the remaining 18% were on Xbox.
Elsewhere on the week’s bestsellers was Dead Island 2, which dropped down to the second spot, following its second week on store shelves. Its sales were down 45% compared to its initial launch week.
The full list of boxed bestsellers for the week of April 23 in the UK is as follows:
Star Wars Jedi: SurvivorDead Island 2FIFA 23Mario Kart 8 DeluxeHogwarts LegacySuper Mario OdysseyMinecraft (Nintendo Switch)Minecraft LegendsCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2Resident Evil 4
It’s unclear where Star Wars Jedi: Survivor will fall in terms of its sales figures, but given the recent data, it’s off to a strong start, at least in the UK.
