But opening week sales are less than half that of the original.
But despite Riptide's success at the top of the charts, the zombie slaying sequel only managed to sell less than half the amount the original sold during its first week on sale in September 2011.
The Xbox 360 version accounted for 71 per cent of Riptide's total sales, with the remaining 29 per cent split between PC and PS3.
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen enters the chart at No. 3, with abysmal movie spin-off Star Trek shooting in at No. 4.
Last week's other new releases - LEGO City Undercover: The Chase Begins and Deadly Premonition: The Director's Cut - enter...

Dragons Dogma: Dark Arisen is not a DLC. No, although you would be forgiven for thinking so, given Capcoms rather convoluted and muddled pre-release publicity for the title, but Dark Arisen asks you to recall the time before digital downloads when expansion scale content was released in physical form only.

Last year was pretty good to us as far as RPGs go. Among multiple pedigree releases in the genre, we saw the emergence of Capcoms new Monster Hunter Dark Souls lovechild, Dragons Dogma. And what a lovechild it was! Upon venturing into the expansive and gorgeous (albeit slightly unoriginal) land of Gransys, players were met with an astonishing mixture of visceral combat, unforgiving difficulty and brilliant open ended exploration. Player-created party members, combo based swordplay and an intricate game world came together with these to produce a sharp, but extremely rewarding difficulty curve that drove players to constantly be on edge during exploration.
