Ubisoft’s Expectation Of Sales From Assassin’s Creed Origins Is Surprising
Developer and Publisher Ubisoft’s upcoming action adventure game Assassin’s Creed Origins will be released in few months. the new game will be coming out after nearly 2 years from the last game and it will be the tenth installment in the Assassin’s Creed Series.
The game was officially announced at the E3 2017 with several game plays, new features, and new game mechanics. it has received positive responses till now from both critics and the gaming communities. so with all the hype, one would expect that Assassin creed would be a game changer for the series but Ubisoft thinks differently.
During the quarterly financial conference, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ubisoft Yves Guillemot and Chief Financial Officer Alain Martinez shared the report on the fiscal quarter which ended as of June 30, 2017, and along with it, they talked about the future of their upcoming games.
Martinez during the conference said that the company expects the game to have better sales than Assasin’s Creed Syndicate but does not expect it to outperform Assassin’s Creed Unity.
Later Guillemot added that it may not sell like Black Flag but Ubisoft still believes in the potential of the game so expecting a bigger sales number would not be wrong.
Honestly, I think that the game would be a good seller it will surely cross Syndicate’s sales number as it performed poorly and it is also possible that it reaches the Black Flag’s sales number too. yes, they screwed up with some games of the series but it still one of most loved franchise in the gaming community.
Ubisoft has been working on the big project since 2014 and having been making a lot of changes with a completely new story for the game. the map of the game is expected to be larger than the Assassin Creed Black Flag’s Carribean sea. The NPC’s in the game has been improvised now they will not take turns to attack and also the instant kill system has been removed making fights more difficult.
Assassin’s Creed origins will be releasing on 27 October 2017 for PC, PS4, PS4 Pro and Xbox One. for more information you can visit the official Website.
