Batman: Arkham Knight might be a disaster on the PC but the title created by Rocksteady and published by Warner Bros. remains in the number one position in the United Kingdom sales top ten, the same position that it occupied during the previous week.

The title will get a boost in sales when the new Batgirl: A Matter of Family content will be launched, allowing players to explore a new area, an amusement park built on top of an oil rig that Joker turns into a killing field.

Gamers can control Batgirl and Robin as they try to save Commissioner Gordon.

LEGO Jurassic World, another title published by Warner Bros., remains in second place for the week that ended on July 4, according to data from UKIE, allowing gamers to get through the four movies of the franchise with a wide cast of characters that includes about thirty dinosaurs.

The top three is unchanged as The Elder Scrolls Online, developed by ZeniMax Online and published by Bethesda, stays on the final place on the podium, mostly because it was recently launched on the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4.

The best of the rest

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, the open world Geralt powered adventure from CD Projekt RED, is in fourth place, gaining one position, and certainly benefits from the fact that the studio delivers more free content every week, alongside a number of significant patches.

Grand Theft Auto V, the Rockstar title, also moves up one place, probably because of the most recent content update for the Online mode.

Nintendo will be happy to see that its most recent Wii U experience, Yoshi's Wooly World, has managed to stay in the top ten, even if it has lost two positions, while the Xbox Edition of Minecraft has moved into seventh.

FIFA 15 might be more than nine months old, but it stays in eight place for the week.

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, the shooter from Sledgehammer Games and Activision, is in ninth place as interest shifts to the next installment in the franchise, Black Ops 3.

The United Kingdom top ten is closed down by the PlayStation edition of Minecraft.
