PS3 generates largest sales for UbiSoft

Posted on January 22, 2009 by Nick
 

Earlier last month, Take-Two, publishers of Bioshock and Grand Theft Auto, announced that the PS3 had been their biggest source of income, with 35% of their revenue coming from the platform. 

It seems this may becoming trend, as UbiSoft is reporting a similar story.  So far for the fiscal year of 2008, 21% of the publisher's sales have come from the PS3.  Of the three home consoles, that is the largest percent, with Microsoft's XBox 360 trailing at 20% and the Wii at 15%.  This is quite a mix up from the 2007 fiscal year, where the 360 actually had the highest amount of sales out of all platforms at 25%.

UbiSoft is expecting to meet their financial goals for the fiscal year of 2008, with Tom Clancy's HAWX releasing for the PS3, 360, and PC in the final quarter of the fiscal year.

European countries bring in higher revenue than America, but it doesn't they get more profit.



currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X

@johnsobas

oh but I thought MS said EU is their "stronghold" too now....

sometimes I feel SONY's PR team get trashed more even though some competitors make almost as bad claims.

Xbox 360 > PS3 in U.S
PS3 > Xbox 360 in E.U

E.U sales $ > U.S sales $

Therefore since the sales of software are relatively equal that selling more in the E.U would give them additional revenue. Also Bioshock was recently released on the PS3 and that may have been undertracked.



Tease.

Yea, very true. PS3 support aint going nowhere although Dodece will probably beg to disagree.



@squilliam

isn't Bioshock from Take 2?
