Ubisoft: We’re reaping ‘benefits of Nintendo Switch’s huge success’

Nintendo’s massive Switch sales are translating into gains for other companies. Ubisoft emphasized that its support for the hybrid home/handheld console is directly contributing to its bottom line. Ubisoft announced in its quarterly financial report today that it is the top third-party publisher on Nintendo’s device.

“We’re also reaping the benefits of the Switch’s huge success and our position as leading third-party publisher on the platform thanks to, among others, our Just Dance games and Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle,” Ubisoft chief financial officer Frederick Duguet said. “The depth and breadth of our catalog, which goes beyond the brands mentioned, provides us with ever-greater visibility and continues to be a strong driver of profitability.”
