It'll come as no surprise that this past week's boxed UK charts were dominated by the new releases of Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time and Star Wars: Squadrons, which took first and second place respectively.
Behind the scenes however, Crash 4's physical launch sales were down 80% compared to 2017's N. Sane Trilogy, with just 18% of sales for the game coming on Xbox One, while Star Wars: Squadrons was also down 72% on last year's Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order (although admittedly those two games are widely different in genre).
Elsewhere, it was generally business as usual with Mafia: Definitive Edition and Mafia: Trilogy naturally dropping to the lower end of the top ten, but for the first time in a while, there was no place for GTA V. Shocker!
Here's a look at the top ten all formats chart for the week ending October 5th:

Why don’t you post the US charts as well?
82% of copies sold were on ps4 aswell, are xbox players just not that interested in crash anymore?
Also didn't the n sane trilogy cone out on switch aswell which would of helped its numbers
@Valhalla91 The ps4 market share in the UK is huge compared to the xbox one so that's why you have a low percentage of people buying it
@Valhalla91 I almost bought it, but figured I should wait for a sale given how frequently the other Crash/Spyro games are discounted. I think XBox fans are just more frugal maybe
