Meanwhile, EuroGamer noted Ubisoft how the previous 'Unity' title had brought a negative impact on the sales of Assassin's Creed Syndicate when it was launched on consoles recently. During an investor calls, executive Alain Martinez admitted saying, "Clearly in our first week we were impacted by what happened with Assassin's Creed Unity."
However, the game second-week sales of the game showed improvement which might make a turnaround for the future of the latest AC entry in the franchise and Martinez was optimistic to see a possibility that it will exceed what the company raked from selling Assassin's Creed Unity.
Ubisoft head Yves Guillemot commented, "We seem to experience the same sales curve as 'Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag'. Versus 'Unity, Syndicate' was down in the first week but nicely outperformed it in its second week as it benefitted from positive word of mouth."
Assassin's Creed Syndicate was released on Xbox One, PS4 on October 23 and is slated to launch on PC come November 19.
