God of War Ragnarök has taken first place on the UK retail charts, according to GfK Chart-Track for the week ending January 7, 2023. Sales for the game were down 36 percent week-on-week, however, this is to be expected as the Holiday season winds down.

FIFA 23 remained in second place, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II was up one spot to third place, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe dropped from third to fourth place.

Physical game sales fell 47 percent week-on-week, which is after a 52 percent drop the previous week.
