Assassin's Creed series tops 73 million in sales

4.7
Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed series reached a total of 73 million in sales according to the publisher's corporate website, which lists its "worldwide best-selling franchises." Assassin's Creed, which has featured six releases in the main series since its 2007 debut and eight additional games on browser and portable platforms, leads Ubisoft's second-best-selling property Just Dance (48 million) by 25 million units.

Assassin's Creed will likely continue to sell by the millions given that the next game, Assassin's Creed: Unity, will arrive on PS4, Xbox One and PC this holiday season. Unity was just announced in March and takes place in Paris during the French Revolution of the 18th century, a setting that was vaguely foretold at the end of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood.

The next three series in the publisher's top five in sales bear the late Tom Clancy's name: Splinter Cell (30 million), Rainbow Six (26 million) and Ghost Recon (25 million). Head past the break to see the rest of Ubisoft's sales list.

This game is very good! I couldn't stop playing it for like a 2-3 weeks. I beat almost all side missions and all of the story, but I did like assassins creed 3 a little better because you dont have to spend 60% of the game on a boat.

-Tupac 73,000,000 x $50 = 3650000000 just wow.


Not necessary as it takes a big chunk of that to make the game


They still make a hell of a lot either way though


It costs them usually around $20 to make $30 profit on one disc.
73,000,000,000 x $30 = 219000000000


Like i said, they still make a hell of a lot, but its such a good game so im glad i helped them reach this goal!
