The recently-released Assassin’s Creed Shadows has got off to a rapid start, with over 2 million players in its first two days, but it seems it’s going to take a lot for it (or any other game in the series) to overtake 2018’s Assassin’s Creed Odyssey.
As per Insider Gaming, the acclaimed 2018 open world action RPG remains the series’ biggest game to date, as far as player numbers go. Though 2020’s Valhalla is the biggest launch that the series and Ubisoft both have ever seen, as per the aforementioned report, Odyssey has more unique players across its lifetime than any other Assassin’s Creed game, at over 40 million players to date.
Exactly what that means for the game’s sales is unknown, but given the reputation that Odyssey has enjoyed since its launch seven years ago, it doesn’t come as a huge surprise that it has the massive player base that it does.
Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Read our review of the game through here.
