Ocarina of Time remake tops the UK chart — the series’ second-biggest launch ever
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is number one in the UK. The Switch 2 remake of the 1998 classic debuted at the top of the UK physical software chart for the week ending 7 November, knocking Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 down to second place. The numbers behind the debut are striking: according to GfK data reported by The Game Business editor Christopher Dring, it is the second-biggest Zelda launch the UK has ever seen, with first-week boxed sales around 35 percent higher than Breath of the Wild managed in 2017 and roughly half of Tears of the Kingdom’s debut. It is also the biggest physical game launch of 2026 so far in the UK. The chart counts boxed copies only, so the full first-week total will be higher once digital sales are added. Elsewhere in the top ten, the Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee remaster debuted at number nine.
