Why is the player count so high?

[Ethiopian Princess Rei]

Incels said it would only have 700 concurrent, and then only 4000 concurrent.

It's approaching 40k concurrent in the middle of the morning on a week day?? WHY????

AC is a console series and 90% of AC players are on console or Ubi+ if PC so it shouldn't be this high. I'm literally crying rn. Valhalla peaked at 15k Steam concurrent and sold 20 million copies. How is Shadows beating Valhalla??????!

It's also evening in Japan; just past 10pm. Everyone's off from work and the home security guards are waking up.

You Underestimate the Power of AC fans. every single one will buy it even if it was the worst game ever.

and AC as a franchise is pretty mid.

[Shield]

they're already clarifying "maybe its higher than avowed and concord but veilguard still got higher!!!!"

you can watch the cope in real time

Yeah I am getting on console as well and I'm a PC gamer B)

Because most of us sleep at night and don't wait for game launch ?

Which, according with the woke detector group, is another woke game.

[LazyJoeBeard]

Veilguard I believe had 70K peak in the first 24 hours and I am pretty sure that was a massive failure.

[Drakenhof]

You can never lose if you constantly change the goals

[darkgheed]

The reason why the player count isnt so high is bc of the Ubisoft launcher - when you bough 2 AC games in the past (and get the 100 goldcoins) you get a 20% discount. So a lot of them bough it on ubisoft and not on steam - like me.

I have this game on console and I love the AC games, with Odyssey and Valhalla being two of my favorites.

But to answer your question didn't Valhalla release on Steam like 2 years after it's normal release? I would not expect and older game added to steam long after it's general release to get the same type of numbers.

U-um... uhhhh... it's still lower than Monster Hunter... haha, yeah... take that wokies!
