New Spider-Man Game Becomes UK's Fastest-Selling Game in 2018


Sony Interactive Entertainment

Insomniac's new Spider-Man game for the PlayStation 4 was just released a few days ago and it has already swung its way to the top of the UK sales charts. It has also become the fastest-selling game of the year in the UK, GameIndustry.biz reports.

Sony's new superhero game took Far Cry 5 out of its throne as 2018's fastest-selling game in the UK, which is pretty damn impressive since Far Cry 5 was released for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. It also topped this year's previous best-selling PlayStation 4 exclusive, God of War.

This news isn't surprising. Critics have praised the game, calling it one of the best superhero games ever made. Insomniac's new game has also become the fastest-selling Marvel-branded video game of all time, surpassing 2013's LEGO Marvel Super Heroes, which was released on 12 different platforms.
