Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced Hits 3 Million Sales! New Game Plus Incoming

▤ Summary

Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced sold more than 3 million copies within a week of launch and hit 2 million sales in its first 24 hours. The game also set a new Steam record for the most-played Assassin’s Creed entry and broke the franchise’s previous concurrent player peak. Ubisoft confirmed that it is developing a New Game Plus mode for a future update, but it does not plan major DLC because the game is now content complete. The launch also drew backlash over about $85 in day-one microtransactions, even though those purchases generated additional revenue. Ubisoft says it will now focus on smaller updates, quality-of-life improvements, and community events.
