Ubisoft Stock Increased By Over 5% Following AC Shadows New Peak On Steam

Expert Verified By

Still Not Enough To Save Ubisoft!

Story Highlight
  • Assassin’s Creed Shadows was deemed a failure on launch due to an extremely low player count.
  • However, the game’s player count kept on increasing and eventually became the most in the series on Steam.
  • Thanks to that the company’s stock has seen an over 5% increase in value today. 

Ubisoft’s survival depends on how much revenue Assassin’s Creed Shadows generate for it. The gaming giant was in trouble due to constant failed releases but it seems like Shadows is finally saving it. 

Following a poor launch in just a few days the game rose through the charts and achieved the highest concurrent player base in the series on Steam. Thanks to it Ubisoft’s stock is also increasing rapidly. Today it rose by over 5%.

Why it matters: Ubisoft was on the verge of bankruptcy but seems like AC Shadows may be able to save it.

Ubisoft’s Stock Has Seen A Rapid Rise Following Assassin’s Creed Shadows

As seen in the image above the company’s stock value has increased by 5.35% today. This happened due to the new peak of almost 65K players on Steam, which, by the way, is the highest in the series. 

Many were convinced that Shadows will fail but it seems like the love for the Assassin’s Creed franchise is way too high. Given how massive the franchise actually is it is not surprising for the latest game in the series to gather such high numbers. 

While Ubisoft has yet to share the sales figure the game has also already crossed two million players. That said, the success of Shadows won’t be enough to make up for the losses the company has faced before. 

For example, Skull and Bones was a colossal failure that shook the company from the inside out. The game was reported to have a budget of around $800 million which is straight up diabolical.  

Nonetheless, the delays seem to have been worth it as most of the fandom and reviewers have praised the game. So, hopefully, following this launch the gaming giant will double down on quality and focus on its fandom.
