UK retailers are looking forward to a strong first quarter software line-up in 2016. This is typically quiet time of the year boasts several high-profile release next year, including Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, Tom Clancy's The Division, Mirror's Edge Catalyst, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, and Street Fighter V.
"It’s reassuring to know that come January the sales aren’t going to suddenly diminish, like most other years, leaving all of retail wishing that Christmas sales would return," ShopTo’s head of commercial Alison Fraser told MCVUK. "It’s positive all round to have such an incredible line-up, be it for customers spreading their budgets so as to purchase more titles, or for publishers not to be competing for space in retail in a busy Christmas period, and also for retail who need not be so reliant on Q4."
The Hut Group’s video game boss Mike Fethers added that "it’s a superb line-up that shows what can be done during the traditionally quiet time of the year. But I am fearful some of these titles will slip later to more ‘traditional’ release slots."
