UK chart: Anarchy Reigns enters in 16th

Enough to go Platinum?

A new release! An actual new release has entered the charts. It's the Platinum-made beat-'em-up Anarchy Reigns, and it arrived in 16th place.

Does 16th place mean it did fairly well? Or is it that post-Christmas game sales are, overall, quite low - giving Anarchy Reigns a boost in ranking? UK numbers company Chart-Track does not disclose figures, but it may be a bit of both - the game's £19.99 RRP will surely have helped shift copies.

Further up the chart, this week's top five remains exactly the same. Feel free to go back and read last week's article for the run-down.

Oh, go on then, it was FIFA 13, Far Cry 3, Black Ops 2, Hitman: Absolution and Need for Speed: Most Wanted.

It was another week without any Wii U exclusives in the top 40 - or Vita exclusives, for that matter.

The full top 40 lies below.
