Ubisoft insta a la comparación de Assassin's Creed Shadows a Origins, Odyssey, Mirage, no Valhalla

Autor : Penelope Actualizar : May 13,2025

Assassin's Creed Shadows enfrenta una inmensa presión global para tener éxito para Ubisoft, luego de varios retrasos y las ventas decepcionantes de Star Wars Outlaws del año pasado. La compañía ha estado lidiando con una serie de contratiempos, incluidos fracasos de alto perfil , despidos , cierres de estudio y cancelaciones de juegos que conducen al lanzamiento de las sombras.

La situación en Ubisoft se ha intensificado hasta el punto en que la familia Guillemot fundadora está explorando las conversaciones con Mega-Corpent Tencent y otros inversores sobre un acuerdo de compra. Esto les permitiría retener el control sobre la propiedad intelectual de la compañía, destacando la naturaleza crítica del desempeño de las sombras.

La industria de los videojuegos está monitoreando de cerca el rendimiento temprano de Assassin's Creed Shadows para evaluar su éxito o fracaso. Si bien Ubisoft aún no ha publicado cifras de ventas específicas, han anunciado que Shadows alcanzó los 2 millones de jugadores dentro de los dos días posteriores a su lanzamiento, superando los números de lanzamiento de Origins y Odyssey.

También hay una atención significativa en los números de jugadores concurrentes Steam Concurrente de Shadows, que se están comparando con otros lanzamientos recientes de juegos para un solo jugador y títulos anteriores de Assassin's Creed en la plataforma de Valve. Durante el fin de semana, las sombras se convirtieron en el juego más jugado de la serie sobre Steam, logrando un pico de 64,825 jugadores concurrentes. Sin embargo, es importante tener en cuenta que este fue el primer juego de Creed de Assassin en lanzar directamente en Steam. Para el contexto, el RPG Dragon Age para un solo jugador de BioWare: el Veloguard alcanzó un pico de 89,418 jugadores en la misma plataforma.

Determinar si las sombras se encuentran, exceden o no alcanza las expectativas de Ubisoft es un desafío sin conocer esas expectativas. Sin embargo, las ideas de un correo electrónico interno de Ubisoft, revisado por IGN, ofrecen una imagen más clara de la actuación del primer fin de semana del juego.

Los datos internos revelan que las sombras lograron los segundos ingresos de ventas más altos del día uno en la historia de la franquicia, solo detrás de Valhalla de 2020, que se benefició de una combinación única de lanzamiento en múltiples generaciones de consolas durante el pico de los juegos de estadía en el hogar debido a la pandemia global.

Shadows también estableció un récord para el mejor lanzamiento del día uno de Ubisoft en la tienda PlayStation, lo que indica un fuerte rendimiento en la PS5.

Con respecto al rendimiento de la PC, Shadows vio el 27% de sus "activaciones" totales en esta plataforma. Las comunicaciones internas de Ubisoft enfatizan que Steam jugó un papel importante en el rendimiento de la PC del juego, aunque no se divulgan los números de ventas exactos. Describen los primeros resultados como una "fuerte validación de nuestra decisión de regresar a la plataforma".

Ubisoft también está destacando el compromiso del jugador del juego, que se encuentra en "niveles récord", y señala que "la retroalimentación a través de las plataformas moderadas y verificadas, las menos afectadas por el bombardeo de revisión, sigue siendo increíblemente positiva". Shadows fue el juego de Ubisoft más visualizado y supera a todos los demás títulos de Assassin's Creed en Twitch, incluida Valhalla.

La comunicación interna proporciona contexto en las comparaciones entre el lanzamiento de Shadows y otros juegos en la franquicia. Si bien Shadows no coincidió con el rendimiento de lanzamiento de Valhalla, Ubisoft argumenta que el éxito de Valhalla se debió a una "tormenta perfecta" de factores que incluyen la pandemia global, los bloqueos generalizados y el lanzamiento de un nuevo hardware de consola. Sugieren que es más apropiado comparar sombras con juegos como Origins, Odyssey y Mirage, lanzados durante condiciones de mercado más típicas. En esta comparación, Shadows está configurando nuevos puntos de referencia.

Ubisoft también destacó que Shadows se lanzó en marzo, fuera de la tradicional ventana de lanzamiento de pre-gracias que generalmente aumenta las ventas. Además, Ubisoft decidió no ofrecer un período de acceso temprano, que generalmente cobran más, y su servicio de suscripción ahora está disponible directamente en Xbox, lo que afecta las comparaciones de ventas en esa consola.

En última instancia, el éxito financiero de Assassin's Creed Shadows será un factor decisivo no solo para el juego sino también para el futuro de Ubisoft. Una imagen clara de esto solo puede surgir con el próximo informe financiero de Ubisoft en los próximos meses.

Shadow of the Monkey King: PS5 Patch Delivers Major Performance Boost, But 93GB Download Warning Sends Players Scrambling The highly anticipated Shadow of the Monkey King — officially titled Wukong — has just dropped a major performance patch for PlayStation 5, promising smoother frame rates, enhanced ray-tracing, and improved load times. However, fans are reacting with a mix of excitement and frustration after discovering the patch’s staggering 93GB download size. What’s New in the Patch? According to the official patch notes released by Game Science, the update brings several key improvements: Stable 60fps at 4K Resolution: The game now maintains a consistent 60 frames per second in most gameplay scenarios, a significant upgrade from the variable performance in the initial launch. Ray-Traced Lighting & Reflections: Enhanced visual fidelity with more realistic lighting and environmental reflections, especially in the game’s lush, mythological landscapes. Faster Load Times: Level transitions and open-world travel have been optimized, reducing loading times by up to 40%. Bug Fixes & Stability: Numerous crash fixes and AI behavior adjustments have been implemented based on player feedback. The team has also added a new "Performance Mode" that prioritizes frame rate over resolution, ideal for players who value smooth gameplay over ultra-high graphics. The 93GB Download: A Double-Edged Sword While the improvements are undeniable, the 93GB patch has sparked controversy. For context, the base game was already around 80GB — meaning the patch adds nearly 120% more data. Players on limited storage devices, particularly those with older PS5 models (1TB or 2TB), are alarmed. Many have reported that the patch not only eats up valuable space but may force them to delete other games to make room. Sony has since confirmed that the patch is required to access certain new features, including the expanded "Spirit Realm" side quests and new difficulty modes. Community Reaction “My PS5 only has 2TB, and I’ve already got 100+ games. I don’t even have the storage to test the patch!” – @GamerFromShangriLa “The visuals are gorgeous, but 93GB? That’s more than some whole console games.” – @PixelPanda99 “I’ll take the performance gains… but maybe next time, send a patch that doesn’t require a hard drive upgrade.” – @WukongWarrior Some players are turning to external SSDs, while others are demanding better compression or incremental updates in future patches. What’s Next? Game Science has acknowledged the backlash and said they’re exploring ways to optimize future updates with delta patches. They’ve also hinted at a potential "lightweight" version of the game for lower-end systems. For now, if you’re a fan of Wukong, the patch is worth the download — just make sure you’ve got the space, patience, and a good internet connection. Pro Tip: Use a high-speed external SSD and schedule the download overnight to avoid disrupting gameplay. Shadow of the Monkey King continues to impress with its unique blend of Chinese mythology, fluid combat, and breathtaking art direction. Just don’t forget to double-check your storage before hitting "download." 🐒💥 Lectura
