Assassin's Creed Shadows Controversy Does Little to Slow Down Sales

Assassin’s Creed Shadows has stormed onto the gaming scene with a remarkable launch, achieving over 1 million players within just 15 hours of its release. This impressive feat has propelled it to the top of the sales charts on Steam, outpacing recent hits like Monster Hunter Wilds and Split Fiction.

With Over 1 Million Players

Assassin’s Creed Shadows (AC Shadows) has not only met but exceeded expectations with its launch. Ubisoft proudly shared on the game's official X (formerly Twitter) account that AC Shadows hit the 1 million player mark in a mere 15 hours post-launch.

Currently, AC Shadows holds the position of the top-selling game on Steam. Data from SteamDB indicates that the game reached an all-time peak of 41,412 concurrent players on March 20. The community's reception has been overwhelmingly positive, with 82% of reviews on Steam labeling it as "Very Positive."

However, our review at Game8 gave AC Shadows a score of 66 out of 100. While we appreciate the game's expansive world and high production values, we noted that its mechanics could benefit from further refinement, and it somewhat deviates from the traditional Assassin’s Creed formula.
