All time peak of 2,486 players is pretty low. I wonder what the peak was when factoring in release? I understand this didn't launch on steam day 1.
The game sold about a million copies in its first month, but that's across all platforms, and I think that was also including the games that came bundled with Intel CPUs and Nvidia GPUs.
So, still not super great, but likely much higher than the Steam number
Damn so Ubisofrs take-home is like $40 million for that month after platform fees. This game cost $250 - 300 million to make.
