Assassin’s Creed Valhalla has made over $1 billion, Ubisoft confirms

Ubisoft brought the Assassin's Creed franchise back from the brink with Origins, which presented a major shift in gameplay and mechanics. We've now had three ‘RPG' style Assassin's Creed games, with Valhalla being particularly successful. 

As part of the publisher's recent quarterly earnings report, Ubisoft CEO, Yves Guillemot, confirmed that Assassin's Creed Valhalla has now made over $1 billion USD in revenue. The game was helped along by being part of the Xbox Series X/S and PS5 launch games line-up, as well as continued sales through DLC, free updates and major expansions.

Currently, Assassin's Creed Valhalla is due to get another major expansion in March, followed by a new spin-off game in late 2022 or 2023. After that, Ubisoft will be looking to reinvent Assassin's Creed as we know it once again.

Instead of another single-player focused RPG, the next mainline Assassin's Creed game will be called ‘Infinity' and aims to incorporate more live service elements to the game, while promising continued expansions and content drops for years to come.

KitGuru Says: While I'm not the biggest fan of how bloated the recent Assassin's Creed RPGs have been, there is no doubt that it has been good for continued popularity. However, Ubisoft's next big shake-up for the series is just around the corner.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
