Ancient Greece-set Assassin's Creed Odyssey has received a warm reception from fans and critics, although its launch sales are slower out of the gate compared to last year's Origins.
Odyssey arrived second in this week's top 40 chart, behind FIFA 19, but with 25 per cent fewer physical sales than last year's AC entry (thanks for the comparison, GI.biz).
But it's not too much of a worry for Ubisoft. The rise in digital sales will cover a bit of that (UK numbers company Chart-Track doesn't count these) - and Odyssey feels like a game many would choose to own digitally because it's built to be played for months.
