No Man’s Sky is the second biggest PS4 launch ever for Sony

Hello Games’ No Man’s Sky has topped the U.K. All Format Chart following its launch last week, becoming the second biggest PlayStation 4 title launch for Sony since the console’s release in November 2013.

In addition, the space exploration title became the biggest launch for a new IP on the PS4, and ranks fifth in overall new IP launches spanning both first and third party releases on a Sony console. 

Unsurprisingly, the biggest PS4 launch to date is still held by Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, which launched back in May.
