Part 3/10:
Compared to recent Assassin’s Creed titles, Shadows stands out for its disappointing performance. Notably, Assassin's Creed Mirage, a spin-off, managed to outsell Shadows in a shorter period, with approximately 5 million copies sold shortly after launch. Meanwhile, even older entries and other recent franchises, like Ghost of Yojimbo, managed to outperform Shadows despite their own controversies. This stark contrast underscores how far the franchise’s reputation has fallen.
