The Division sells more in 24 hours than any Ubisoft game ever made

It’s no wonder people are having to queue for an in-game vendor – The Division has only gone and smashed Ubisoft’s records for units sold within 24 hours, as well as breaking their records for digital sales in that same period across all platforms.

The Division might be finally out, but there’s still plenty to go in our list of upcoming PC games.

“The launch of The Division is a tremendous achievement for Ubisoft, and demonstrates our unrivaled capacity to create fantastic new game brands and transform them into entertainment blockbusters,” said Yves Guillemot, co-founder and CEO, Ubisoft.

“This is a momentous day for Ubisoft, but more importantly it marks the start of millions of players’ enduring engagement in The Division’s game world, which we are confident they will love.”

According to Ubisoft, this sales success means Ubisoft now have three of the top four most successful new game brand launches in the history of the gaming industry.
