According to Ubisoft, that is
In news that probably wouldn’t surprise anyone, Ubisoft estimated in their 2012-13 financial fiscal report thatAssassin’s Creed IIIsold well over 3.5 million copies in only its first week of hitting shelves. To put things in perspective,Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3sold 6.5 million copiesin its first 24 hours last year. We’re not talking anywherenearthose kind of numbers, but this is still extremely impressive for a game that isn’tCall of Duty, so that’s pretty cool.
The report also states that this is double the sales from whatRevelationssaw last year in the same time frame. Personally, I’m more interested to hear howAssassin’s Creed: Liberationfared launching on the same day as its console brother, but sadly there’s no word on that front. Hopefully people are picking it up, because I’d love to see more support for the Vita from developers and consumers alike (plus,Liberationis really good!). In any case, it looks like we’re going to be seeing a lot moreAssassin’s Creedfrom here on out. As if there were ever any doubt.
