Officially released on Wednesday, ‘Assassin’s Creed III’ becomes Ubisoft’s biggest ever launch title, selling almost double that of ‘Assassin’s Creed II’ and outperforming the publisher’s previous best, last year’s ‘Assassin’s Creed: Revelations’ by over 117,000 units.

Launched initially on Xbox 360 and PS3 alongside a separate PS Vita title called ‘Assassin’s Creed: Liberation’ and with a PC version to follow, it easily becomes the second biggest launch of the year so far (behind FIFA 13). The Xbox 360 version accounted for 59% of sales with 41% on PS3. ‘FIFA 13’ remains at No2 enjoying only a 2% drop in sales. Last week’s No1 ‘Medal of Honor: Warfighter’ (-46%) falls to No6, making way for 3 big new titles – ‘WWE ’13’ at No3, ‘Football Manager 2013’ at No4 and ‘Need for Speed Most Wanted’ at No5.

Out of these only Need for Speed improves on last year’s title, selling 17,000 more than ‘Need for Speed: The Run’ sold at launch last year. ‘Forza Horizon’ (-50%) drops to No7, but stays ahead of ‘Skylanders Giants’ (-16%) which moves to No8. EA now have three titles in the Top 10, followed by Ubisoft with two thanks to a solid performance this week from ‘Just Dance 4’ (+0%) at No9. Despite the four big Top 10 new releases Bethesda’s ‘Dishonored’ (-36%) manages to stay in the Top 10, down from No5 to No10. ‘Assassin’s Creed III Liberation’ on PS Vita debuts outside the Top 10 at No14 making it the 3rd biggest debut for a PS Vita title (behind hardware launch titles Uncharted: Golden Abyss and FIFA Football).

Forza ahead of NFS PS3 which was 51%. Forza being down 50% from last week means that it's first week was bigger than NFS all format's first week. Don't have anything against NFS but happy to see that the UK isn't ignoring Horizon. Definitely want Playground to get the proper resources to give us a kick ass next gen Horizon.

Liberation being the biggest Vita game since launch doesn't really surprise me. Don't really know what that means sale-wise though.

FIFA is at about 71k combined... 46% is Xbox, so FIFA 13 Xbox at #5 is about 32k, so everything below is >32k.

Sports Champions 2 entered at #17 in PS3 budget.
Nike+ Kinect Training bombed. Not in any chart.
Smart As bombed. Not looking so smart now.
Silent Hill Book of Memories entered at 9 in the Vita chart.
Transformers Prime (3DS, Wii, DS) bombed completely and not in any chart. But it was Toys R Us exclusive.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
So many releases...and then so many titles dropping many positions despite, probably, not having such big drops in numbers ( aka Skylanders, Just Dance, Layton, etc.)

Mess @ AC and NFS Vita. Let's hope for a better debut in the US.

And Mario Land continues to outshine Mario Kart 7, wow.

Maybe it's all due to the upcoming bundle release?
And this makes me wonder if digital copies through bundles will be counted by GFK.

Probably not, which is just dumb. You have to wonder how the Vita's digital games sell though.
 
Assassin's Creed Liberation seems like a huge underperformance. I'm not sure how it is in the UK, but that train ad has been playing everywhere in the US

Good on Forza, I bought both but FH feels a leap ahead of NFS in visuals and feel.

NFS has the crashes and the Bangs tho.

Assassin's Creed III + Liberation, and Dishonored for me this week.

Are those good or bad sales for Liberation?

It's still the third best selling games on the system in the UK, you just have to remember to take these charts into perspective. If it'd come out a couple of months ago, it probably would've been right at the top. But it's October, so it's going up against higher profile games on higher profiles systems, so isn't much of a surprise.

Hopefully it does well enough to justify a sequel that has more polish and a more cohesive story.

If this is correct then
FIFA PS3~30.5K
Horizon<30.5
Skylanders<30.5, 360 Skylanders<10.5K

ACL would then be <10.5K


Also can say NFS<60K, which means that Vita version is <3K

Very impressive for AC3, bodes well for Halo and COD, all the blockbusters doing good numbers.

Also wonder how Halo 4 will do and if it'll beat AC3, Reach did 430k first week UK right?

Exactly, just because it's the 3rd highest opening does not mean it was a good opening. Everything else has just opened with terrible numbers.

Usually when we talk about system sellers we mean a game that either provides a long boost or a big spike the week it did come out. Otherwise we could call almost every game a system seller.
True, but i'm not sure that anyone here have made such claim about Assassins Creed Liberation. I've seen some claims that it could be a system seller for some, but not that it would boost the hardware sales a lot for a long period of time.

Yep, it is possible to describe almost every game as a system seller indeed :) This is afterall very subjective, which game that makes one decide to buy a system.
