How Assassin's Creed Shadows Explores the Honor of a Samurai

Assassin’s Creed Shadows Sees Robust Launch Sales in France

Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Shadows has demonstrated a strong start in the French market, reportedly selling over 120,000 units at retail within France. Industry journalist Oscar Lemaire of Ludostrie reported this significant figure, highlighting the game’s impressive early performance.

Dominating Recent Game Launches

The launch sales for Assassin’s Creed Shadows in France significantly outpace several other major releases. Specifically, its retail debut is:

Nearly three times greater than the French retail launch of Star Wars Outlaws.
More than double the launch figures of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora.
Approximately twelve times higher than the launch of Dragon Age Veilguard.

Landmark Release Outside Major Franchises

This strong performance positions Assassin’s Creed Shadows as a landmark title in the French retail landscape. The game represents the most successful non-FC and non-Call of Duty launch since the release of Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Furthermore, when considering releases outside of Nintendo properties, Assassin’s Creed Shadows‘s launch surpasses all others since the highly successful Hogwarts Legacy.
