Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed Hiatus Is a $300+ Million Dollar Investment For Franchise's Future
After facing a downward trend with its latest releases, Ubisoft has confirmed that there will be no Assassin's Creed game debuted in 2016. Following a streak of over eight years of annual releases, the news has come as a shock to many, although expected for some who have watched the series struggle to regain the momentum it once had. Ubisoft's difficult decision might make sense to fans who have noticed stagnation in the franchise, but for Ubisoft it was a business decision that came at a great cost. With over 80 million copies sold across its library, Assassin's Creed is a huge source of revenue that fuel's the company's worldwide workforce of over 9,000 employees. To put it in perspective, here's how each of the major releases on home consoles have sold: Assassin's Creed - ~11.28 million units sold Assassin's Creed II - ~11.36 million units sold Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood - ~6.92 million units sold Assassin's Creed: Revelations - ~9.18 million units sold Assassin's Creed III - ~13.05 million units sold Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag - ~12.72 million units sold Assassins Creed: Unity- ~7.66 million units sold Assassin's Creed: Rogue - ~2.38 million units sold Assassin's Creed Syndicate - ~4.12 million units ?sold ![]()
There are two things to note about the data above. For one, Assassin's Creed: Unity and Assassin's Creed Rogue launched within the same release window and were targeted for different generations of home console hardware. Therefore, they can be treated as a psuedo-single release totaling at around 10.04 million copies sold. Secondly, Assassin's Creed Syndicate debuted four months ago and will see an increase in lifetime sales as it falls in price, especially during this holiday season. Depending on how well it performs in the next year its relatively well-received debut will signify either a less or more dramatic downward trend than many analysts anticipated. |
