Assassin Creed: Origins doubles Syndicate’s first 10 days of sales

It looks like taking that year off was good for the Assassin’s Creed franchise. Ubisoft revealed as part of its yearly financials today that Origins’ first 10 days of sales were 100 percent better than the last Assassin’s Creed’s, Syndicate, during the same time period.

Assassin’s Creed: Origins came out on October 27, 2017 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. It features an ancient Egyptian setting that takes place earlier than any other entry in the series. Origins also has a revamped combat system that focuses less on counters.
