Ubisoft’s latest financial report suggests that the French company's future is bright, as
Rainbow Six Siege's player count has topped 40 million and
For Honor now has 15 million players. Ubisoft has also reaffirmed its goal of moving 19 million units across its three triple-A releases during this fiscal year ending in March:
The Crew 2, Assassin's Creed Odyssey &
Tom Clancy's The Division 2.
Earlier in the month, Ubisoft proudly announced that
Assassin's Creed Odyssey managed to top the launch-week sales of last years'
Assassin's Creed: Origins, Syndicate, Unity, and
Black Flag, becoming the best-selling
AC title of this console generation, as the sandbox game has also shattered the
AC concurrent players record with 62k players beating the previous
Origins’ 41k record.
While Ubisoft’s goal is clear, there's no word on expectations for each of these games, or sales estimates for other titles.
Tom Clancy's The Division 2 will be the biggest game of Ubisoft for the first half of the next year (rumor has it that
Watch_Dogs 3 will be the other major Ubisoft title for 2019), so it will be interesting to see if it manages to top
Far Cry 5's achievements, including selling 2.5 million copies in its first 5 days.

You are a member of the Division, an elite group of civilian agents charged with being the last line of defense. With DC at risk, it's time to gear up and use your unique skills to take on this new threat.
Tom Clancy's The Division 2 will be available March 15th, 2019 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.
