No Man’s Sky Sales Drop 81 Per Cent One Week After Launch
No Man’s Sky got off to a great start as Sean Murray and the team at Hello Games delivered a huge, open universe in which we could live out our dreams of being interstellar explorers. Unfortunately sales have started to dip, big time.
No Man’s Sky was unable to maintain the UK No.1 spot for a second week running, dropping a massive 81 per cent in sales. This according to reports from ChartTrack.
No Man’s Sky is the second biggest release for the PS4, topped only by Uncharted 4 which dropped down 76 per cent on its second week. So lets face it, a drop like this is not completely unexpected.
F1 2016 claims the No.1 spot this week. However, launch sales are down 32 per cent compared to last year’s F1 2015.
LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens is still going strong at No.3 and Mirror’s Edge Catalyst moves up a massive 90 per cent into No.27.
