Deathloop debuted in first place on the UK retail charts, according to GfK for the week ending September 18, 2021. It is the lowest launch for an Arkane game, however, sales were only slightly behind Prey. Bethesda doesn't share digital sales figures and the game is not yet available on Xbox. 

It was a strong week for PS5 as there was a strong amount of consoles shipped to the UK. Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales jumped up from 13th to second place as sales increased 223 percent, while Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart re-entered the charts in fourth place as sales grew 630 percent. Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut came in sixth place as sales were up 233 percent.

Nintendo Switch games saw a small boost in sales last week as Nintendo cut the price of the console by £20.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is up one spot to third as sales increased 10 percent. The Switch version of Minecraft saw sales grow 10 percent, while Animal Crossing: New Horizons sales rose 11 percent.
