Assassin’s Creed Shadows Surpasses Origins and Odyssey; Player Numbers and Sales Surge

The numbers for Assassin’s Creed Shadows continue to grow, with the game doubling its results within just a few hours. It has now surpassed Assassin’s Creed Origins and Odyssey in terms of launch success, reaching 2 million registered players.

This is a doubling compared to the initial data shared yesterday, which reported 1 million players on launch day. While specific sales figures haven’t been shared, it is clear that these results are positive for the game. The numbers include both users who purchased Assassin’s Creed Shadows and those playing through the Ubisoft+ subscription. In both cases, these results are encouraging, especially when considering the importance of engagement in subscription models.

An Important Game for Ubisoft

The Assassin’s Creed series is known as a blockbuster, so millions of sales are expected. What’s now important is how the game can maintain this strong trend, going from 1 million to 2 million registered players in just hours.

However, the game has faced a tougher road than usual, with several criticisms coming its way, including issues beyond just the gameplay. It will be interesting to see how it performs in the market, especially as it plays a crucial role in Ubisoft’s future.
