Helldivers 2 Dethrones Marvel S Spider Man 2 In Sales For The Second Time In The Uk

According to the report, sales for the game are outpacing Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 in the UK after eight weeks on the market. This, however, may happen because both games are very different. Spider-Man 2’s only retail price of £70 on PS5 can be a big contributing factor. On the other hand, Helldivers 2 is available on both PS5 and PC at a lower price.
While Helldivers 2 stayed on the top of the hill, the month focused on the RPG giants’ debut. On the one hand, it was Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth, and on the other hand, it was Capcom’s Dragon’s Dogma 2 (review). Capcom’s dragon adventure game outpaced the JRPG adventure by a narrow margin. However, it is worth noting that Dragon’s Dogma 2 launched near the latter half of March.
