The UK ranking for May saw V-Rising take first place, followed by EA Sports FC 24 and Grand Theft Auto 5, while the top 5 was completed by Fallout 4 and Helldivers 2.
- V Rising (Level Infinite)
- EA Sports FC 24 (EA)
- Grand Theft Auto V (Rockstar)
- Fallout 4 (Bethesda)
- Helldivers 2 (Sony)

- Hogwarts Legacy (Warner Bros.)
- Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door (Nintendo)
- Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (Activision Blizzard)
- Cyberpunk 2077 (CD Projekt/Bandai Namco)

V Rising was the best-selling game in the UK during May, but it was a poor month overall with game sales down 21% over the year before. 2023 did feature the release of Zelda and Hogwarts Legacy on PS4/Xbox One, which doesn't help the comparisonhttps://t.co/MWXMYoIZdU
