On Monday, UK physical console sales of Assassin's Creed Odyssey were revealed to be down 25 per cent on last year's Origins. While we said at the time there were likely other factors in play, it didn't look great for Ubisoft's well-received new release.
A few days later, and Odyssey's worldwide launch week sales are now in. Crucially, these include both physical and digital download copies sold.
The good news for Ubisoft? Odyssey is now tracking above Origins - and indeed also above Assassin's Creed Unity and Syndicate. Odyssey, Ubisoft says, has had "the franchise's best launch-week performance of this console generation".
