Assassin’s Creed Shadows Already In Steam Best-Sellers One Week Before Launch

Expert Verified By

Ubisoft Might Have Its Big Hit After All!

Story Highlight
  • Assassin’s Creed Shadows has already joined the Steam Best-Sellers list.
  • The early impressions and previews for AC Shadows are quite positive as well.
  • The game will be out in just under a week 

Ubisoft’s entire weight is riding on the back of Assassin’s Creed Shadows. The upcoming title will be essential for the company and decisive for its future. However, things are looking good, as the title seems to be doing well in terms of sales already. 

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is still one week away, but it has already made the list of Steam best-sellers, indicating that it will display strong sales numbers. 

Why it matters: Shadows will be a make-or-break title for Ubisoft, as the company is currently on the brink of bankruptcy. A positive reception of the title will keep it afloat.

Filtering out the paid games section on SteamDB, Assassin’s Creed Shadows is currently number 8 and is still a week away from launch. This comes after various fan polls revealed that most gamers aren’t willing to buy the game. 

Ubisoft is also pretty confident in the title, as it predicts Shadows will rival Assassin’s Creed Odyssey in terms of sales, reaching around 4 million copies sold. The pre-orders also look solid, coming in at reportedly over 300,000.

Moreover, the game’s physical copies recently leaked to the public, giving gamers full access to the game. From the previews and the user experience, Shadows seems to be a solid entry in the Assassin’s Creed lineup. 

Nevertheless, since the sales already look promising, we can anticipate that Ubisoft will profit greatly from the game. We are currently in the process of reviewing it and will reveal our thoughts as soon as the embargo lifts.
