Here is our look at the top selling video games for each PEGI age rating for the week ending 31st January. We break down the top selling games into the five PEGI age ratings.

This week it is Activision’s turn to re-claim No1 as ‘COD: Advanced Warefare’ surges 27% in units over last week..  Rockstar/Take 2’s 3 week consecutive spell at the top ends as ‘Grand Theft Auto V’ drops to No2 (-7%).

It does mean that these 2 titles are neck and neck right now when it comes to the number of weeks they have each had at No1 (seven) and the number of consecutive weeks (three).  EA’s ‘FIFA 15’ remains at No3 (-5%) and Deep Silver/Koch remain at No4 with last week’s new release ‘Saints Row IV Re-Elected / Gat Out of Hell’ (-38%).

The tail end of the retail promotion on ‘Call of Duty: Ghosts’ (-37%) sees the title only dropping 2 places from last week to No7.  The only other news this week is 505 Games’ ‘Terraria’ climbing 15 places to No13 (+77%) thanks to the launch of PS4 and Xbox One versions.
