Level 5 and Namco Bandai’s Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch has taken the world by storm and surged to the number one spot in the U.K. all-formats chart.

The PlayStation 3 exclusive managed to knock last week’s number one Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 off the top spot–which dropped to third. EA’s FIFA 13 took second place, with Far Cry 3 and the Hitman: HD Trilogy rounding out the top five. The full chart is below:
