If revenue is a parameter of success, then Assassin's Creed Valhalla may have become one of Ubisoft's biggest hits.
Based on a report by Eurogamer, there was an investor meeting where Ubisoft's CEO discussed the sales and number of the game. If the numbers are to be believed, Assassin's Creed Valhalla has made a revenue of over $1 billion.
Valhalla has become the most successful Assassin's Creed game ever made based on revenue alone. It is also the first Ubisoft game to hit the billion mark in revenue.
Despite a slow start, Assassin's Creed Valhalla has consistently improved to become the game it is now. Ubisoft has supported it with both free and premium content and several bug fixes.
But the sales numbers also hide a significant point of criticism of the game.
Making an open-world game isn't easy, mainly if it contains a massive open-world like Assassin's Creed Valhalla. The game had issues at launch, and fans weren't happy, but Ubisoft was quick to take note. There were a lot of patches straight away, which fixed many of the bugs and glitches present at the launch.
Simultaneously, there were also a lot of new additions made to the game when season one started. Players received updates that took them to Paris and Ireland with new maps and stories.
Free content was also released, which added new game modes to the game, helping players to engage more with the game.
While many expected year one would be the end, Ubisoft dropped bigger surprises with more content on the way. The Odyssey/Valhalla crossover DLC was made available for free, which made Eidor and Kassandra fight for the title of the best assassin.
Dawn of Ragnarok is coming very soon, seeing the players play as Odin and take on the God of War over a massive new map.
