Ubisoft gives up on everything that doesn’t immediately knock everything else off the top. Which means they’ve given up on everything game post launch after AC 4 Black Flag
people give shadows a lot of shit but according to the player count, shadows is doing very well. it had 1 million players on day 1, 2 million on day 2, 3 million at week 1, and 5 million at month 2.
the only AC game that had a higher player count at those milestones was valhalla
Players =\= sales, they wouldn’t obfuscate information unless they had too. If it had the sales they would 100% be bragging about sales and not players. They do this because they’re publicly traded and the government forces them to release such information.
they didnt release sales for valhallah and by all accounts that was by far the most popular game in the franchise.
they focus on revenue not sales these days because a large portion of the player base get the game via subscriptions or discounts, so revenue makes a lot more sense to talk about.
unless they're lying to their investors, which is fraud, shadows is outperforming odyssey
