Sniper Elite 3 enters the All Formats All Prices UK video game chart at No.1, with 65 per cent of its launch week sales coming on the PS4 and Xbox One combined.

The headshot stealth game mirrors the success of the second game, which also charted at No.1, holding the position for two weeks.

Watch Dogs sticks at No.2, while UFC drops two places to third with a 58 per cent sales decline.

The week’s second biggest new entry is Codemasters’ GRID Autosport at No.7, followed by Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark at No.12. The only new entry comes from Bandai Namco’s One Piece: Unlimited World Red at No.28.
