For a third week running, Red Dead Redemption 2 retains the No.1 spot at UK physical games retail.

Although sales are down 53% week-on-week, Rockstar's Wild West epic holds onto just over 30% of the market.

From last week, the top five remains unchanged with Call of Duty: Black Ops IIII leading FIFA 19 by a just a few hundred units, and Forza Horizon 4 staying ahead of Marvel's Spider-Man.

Each of the top five saw a week-on-week sales decline save for Spider-Man, which remained static.

The only new entry in the top ten is LEGO DC Super-Villains which has clawed itself up from No. 12 to No. 10, ending the brief stay of Football Manager 2019 which fell to No. 13.

Overall, there are five new entries into the top 40, though Carnival Games is the only newly released title, entering at No. 20.

EA Sports UFC 3 just slipped back into the charts coming in at No. 40; from Nintendo, Mario Tennis Aces and Splatoon 2 also returned, coming in at No. 29 and No. 36 respectively; finally, with its first DLC set to launch next week, Jurassic World Evolution is back in the charts at No. 32.

Meanwhile Resident Evil VII: Biohazard, F1 2018, Prey, Astro Bot Rescue Mission, and Call of Cthulhu all fell out of the top 40.

Here is the UKIE/GfK Top 10 for week ending November 3rd.
