Guys I think Ubisoft might be lying...
So they are claiming 1 million players. Let's do some quick math to see if we believe it.
Peak steam players: 47,616
Obviously within any 12 hour period probably half the worldwide players will be sleeping, so we'll be real generous and double that player count to get a total.
Approx total steam players: 95,232
Many people argue that there are way more players on console than steam for AC games. So let's subtract the steam players to get a total console player estimate.
Approx console players: 1 million - 95,232 = 904,768
And last let's just see how what a difference in player count that is.
(904,767 / 95,232) x 100 = 950%
So for that 1 million player count to be true there would need 950% more console players than PC players. Yeah I don't think I'm buying it...
