Ubisoft has announced that Assassin’s Creed Shadows has surpassed two million players within its first few days on the market. With this milestone, the latest installment in the franchise has achieved a stronger debut than previous entries like Assassin’s Creed Origins and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, making it one of the most successful launches in the series.
Set in Feudal Japan, the game has captured players’ attention with its historical setting, dual protagonists with distinct playstyles, and enhanced stealth and combat mechanics. This new entry promises an immersive open-world experience, allowing players to explore 16th-century Japan during a period of great political and social upheaval.
This early success highlights the strong interest in the game’s setting, which has been one of the most requested by fans for years. While Ubisoft has yet to reveal exact sales figures, the high player count suggests a very positive reception.
