As part of its fiscal earnings report for the quarter ending December 2008, Ubisoft has
revealed the "sell-in sales" (that's to retailers, not consumers) for a handful of key titles.
Far Cry 2, launched in late October, shipped 2.9 million, while
Raving Rabbids TV Party has tallied up 1.5 million since its mid-November unveiling.
Unfortunately, a certain wisecracking acrobat didn't seem to meet expectations. According to the report, the above figures helped to "offset the impact of a slower take-off" for
Prince of Persia and its 2.2 million shipped units for December.
Yesterday's NPD stats put
PoP's US sales at around 483K. Ubisoft has also confirmed a
fiscal 2009 release window for
Assassin's Creed 2,
Splinter Cell Conviction and a new
Ghost Recon.
