For Honor and Rainbow Six Siege remain Ubi's biggest games overall, of course, and the likes of Far Cry and The Division outstrip AC, but compared to its contemporaries including Valhalla, Mirage, Origins, and Odyssey, Assassin's Creed Shadows has pulled in the most simultaneous s.
Whether you're just starting out or already in the process of tracking down all the Assassin's Creed Shadows has (albeit very narrowly) beaten its series predecessors in of concurrent player records. On Sunday March 23, 64,825 people were playing AC Shadows all at the same time. That tops the previous record for the series on Steam, set by Assassin's Creed Odyssey, with 62,069.
Origins is the next-most popular AC game on Steam, then Black Flag – while not every AC game was released on Steam the same day as other platforms, Odyssey and Origins, like Shadows, were both day-one launches. In of Ubisoft games overall, only For Honor, the original Division, Rainbow Six Siege, and Far Cry 5 have higher record player counts.
