Tom Clancy's The Division has only been out for a little over 2 days, but the title set in a post-smallpox Manhattan is already Ubisoft's fastest selling title ever. This not only makes it their most successful launch ever, according to Ubisoft they now have 3 of the top 4 "most successful game brand launches" the industry has ever had.
The launch of The Division is a tremendous achievement for Ubisoft, and demonstrates our unrivaled capacity to create fantastic new game brands and transform them into entertainment blockbusters.The precise numbers are unknown, but the enormous amount of public interest comes as no surprise. After the public beta had 6.4 million people logging in over the course of a weekend to play the game, all signs pointed towards a successful release for the game developed by the Swedish Ubisoft Massive branch.This is a momentous day for Ubisoft, but more importantly it marks the start of millions of players’ enduring engagement in The Division’s game world, which we are confident they will love.
