Ubisoft tjänade in mer pengar än de räknat med under det senaste affärskvartalet. De sålde produkter för 139 miljoner euro, jämfört med de förväntade 125 miljonerna. The Division, Rainbow Six Siege och Hungry Shark World var tre av de bästsäljande titlarna och hela 75,3 % av intäkterna kom från digitala kanaler.
Via ett pressmeddelande berättade Ubisoft-bossen Yves Guillemot att: "Our solid figures for the first quarter of 2016-17 have confirmed the excellent digital trends and demonstrate we are successfully executing our strategic plan. Player engagement levels reached record highs during the period, fueled by the success of The Division, Rainbow Six Siege and Hungry Shark World. MAUs [2] were up 53% year on year, driving digital revenue to a record weighting of 75% of overall sales. Also during the period, our new line-up of games was very well received at E3, with our portfolio of titles - notably For Honor, Ghost Recon Wildlands, Just Dance 2017, South Park The Fractured But Whole, Steep and Watch_Dogs 2 - lauded for its quality and diversity and confirming its strong potential."
