UK: best-selling Metroid games by units sold and by revenue
It has been a week now since Metroid Dread, the latest entry in the 2D Metroid series, released exclusively on the Nintendo Switch. One of the regions to see the game’s release is the UK. There, GfK Entertainment has released a couple of charts which shows how the Metroid series is doing in the UK.
The first chart shows the best-selling Metroid games by units, and the second chart is by revenue. So far, Metroid Prime games have done the best on both charts, although the order is rearranged a little bit, depending on which chart you’re looking at. The only exception is Metroid Prime: Federation Force, which is nearly at the bottom of both charts.
As for Metroid Dread, after only being available for a week, is currently the 8th best-selling Metroid game by units, and the 6th best-selling Metroid game by revenue. When comparing to other 2D Metroids, it is still trailing Metroid Fusion and Metroid 2: The Return of Samus on the best-selling Metroid games by units. As for the chart based on revenue, only Metroid Fusion is currently charting higher than Metroid Dread. Both charts can be seen in full down below.
