The latest PC UK retail and Steam digital charts have been revealed and as we can see, The Sims 4 and Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor are – once again – this week’s best selling PC titles.
There is seriously nothing that can come close to The Sims 4’s sales in UK. Our guess is that Football Manager 2015 will be able to surpass EA’s title but until then, The Sims 4 will undoubtetly enjoy its throne. Alien: Isolation and Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor are in second and third place, respectively, followed by FIFA 15, Stronghold Crusader II, Wolfenstein: The New Order and Rome: Total War II’s Emperor’s Edition. And in the last three places we find Diablo III, The Elder Scrolls Online, and the standard Edition of Rome: Total War II.
As always, Steam’s charts show a completely different image, proving the difference between the digital and the retail sales of PC games. Monolith’s LOTR game is in the first place, followed by Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, Alien: Isolation and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.
Sid Meier’s Civilization: Beyond Earth and Life is Feudal: Your Own are in the fifth and sixth places, respectively, followed by the standalone version of DayZ, Styx: Master of Shadows, Kerbal Space Program and NBA 2K15.
Here are the complete charts:

Alien – GOTY
Hardly, I think.
Wolfenstein is a real GOTY contender
Yeah, but the “Mordor thing” will most probably win.
Haven’t even finished Shadow of Mordor yet, been replaying mostly Batman Arkham City (for challenge map achievements),with a mix of borderlands 2 and costume quest.
Got sidetracked quite a bit, I’d give Shadow of Mordor a nod for GOTY, but game seems to fall a bit flat(see only 20 main missions, also map isn’t that big)but gameplay is smooth and fluid.
Is the game on working oder? From what i heard the game needs patching.
I haven’t encountered any bugs so far, game runs fine with mixed settings on my GTX 560
There was a 15mb patch the other day but I haven’t really looked into it.
no it’s divinity 😀
judjing by the scores it’s bayonetta 2
its not a contender for me it IS goty. Best fps in a very long time.
Wolfenstein is my GOTY this year so far. Don’t think that’ll change.
atleast wolfenstein is still there. Keep buying that game.
So where’s the source?
Civ is in the top 10 steam charts since it’s announced, nice.
john can you add pc release calendar to the site ?
