There were no new releases last week but there has been a lot of movement in the charts, as new stock of the PlayStation 5 console boosts to number one and Gran Turismo 7 back up to number five.
Not only that but Demon’s Souls has re-entered at number 20 and Spider-Man: Miles Morales at number 23. How long they stay there will largely depend on how long the PlayStation 5 console remains in stock.
