Assassin's Creed Shadows has already reached a new milestone, crossing 3 million players since it launched. Ubisoft's latest big game continues to see success early after launch, with the company sharing on Thursday via Instagram that Assassin's Creed Shadows has passed 3 million players already.

It's finally happened: Assassin's Creed Shadows is going full meta. Naoe and Yasuke's journey is still a story within a story, but this time, it's framed through the Animus Hub. You, the player, are using the Animus – not Layla, Loki, or anyone else – and that means our perception of the past could well be manipulated.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows has seen over 3 million players in the week since launch, Ubisoft has announced. But there's still no sales figure.
