The change from Ezio to Conner as the main protagonist for the Assassin’s Creed series hasn’t slowed it down one bit. Ubisoft released their sales figures for Assassin’s Creed 3 and so far they’ve done 7 million in world wide sales, the fastest selling game in the company’s history. That number can only grow as we start to ease into the holiday season and more and more little Assassins will wake up with smiles on their faces.
