The UK's latest boxed games chart is in, and it's been invaded by a couple of new releases to shake things up. Nintendo's latest Switch exclusive predictably takes the top spot, knocking Hogwarts Legacy back down to second place. Ubisoft is also back in the bestsellers list with Skull and Bones, the online pirate action title that was in development for a thousand years. It's sailed into fourth place, which isn't a bad debut for a game everyone seems to have written off.
After having become the most negatively reviewed game in Steam history, Helldivers 2 is dropping down the list as players change their reviews
The ratings still aren’t nearly where they were before but it’s making progress.
Only a day ago, Helldivers 2 community manager Spitzerfx seemed to be in the clear, but they have officially been demoted after Sony controversy.
From a business standpoint I can understand why they did that…but man, he stood up for the community and thats huge.
He did! There is an entire Reddit thread now where many are thanking him for his help in Sony controversy. Hope he lands on his feet!
Title "seemingly fired after controversy"
Preview text "he seems to be in the clear but demoted"
He did an amazing job and I hope he lands somewhere good too. He's a hero someone who cared about gamers.
Standing up for his own company from a bigger company then gets demoted for doing his job as a community manager. At least he's still employed.
I hope Sony doesn't buy Arrowhead. They need to let them be. No corporate medlings and docking someone's pay for standing up form the ppl.
Wtf is going on with these companies?
Arrowhead Game Studios writes: "Overview For this mini patch, we have made improvements and changes to the following areas: Crash fixes."
Helldivers II sales were up 28% in its second week (UK, boxed).

I saw the list and had to double take when I saw people in the comments mention it, because I just didn't see it at first
This is why the industry is going GaaS.
