The company shared its financial results for the first half of fiscal year 2021-22, ending on Sep. 30, 2021. This success was through a combination of copies sold and any DLC purchased, including microtransactions. Ubisoft previously confirmed that Assassin's Creed Valhalla had the biggest launch of the Assassin's Creed franchise.
Looking ahead to upcoming games, Ubisoft also confirmed that the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake, Tom Clancy's The Division Heartland and Rocksmith+ are slated to arrive at some point between April 2022 and March 2023.
