Assassin’s Creed Shadows debuted in second place on Newzoo’s overall revenue chart for March, following its release during the second half of last month.

According to the data firm, a “significant part” of the game’s total revenue came from Steam compared to previous entries in the franchise. Assassin’s Creed Shadows was the first Ubisoft game to launch day one on Steam since 2019.

At the time, Ubisoft said the decision to stop releasing its titles on Steam was due to the platform’s “unrealistic” business model that “doesn’t reflect where the world is today in terms of game distribution.” The publisher returned to Steam in 2022 with 2020’s Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.

There were six new titles in Top 10 revenue charts for March, including MLB The Show 25 at No.4, Split Fiction at No.6, and WWE 2K25 at No.9.

Semiwork Studios’ online co-op R.E.P.O. skyrocketed from No.165 to No.11, following its release in early access on February 26.

Newzoo attributed this jump to its low price point and positive reviews. The title jumped even further in the player engagement charts, from No.336 to No.12.

“It’s a prime example of the potential fun gameplay loop, innovative approach to a genre, and solid execution,” Newzoo noted. “The fact that R.E.P.O. broke 10 million monthly active users in March is a testament to the quality and hype of the experience.”

Crime sim Schedule 1 followed R.E.P.O. at No.12 on the revenue charts, which followed a similar trajectory of success with an “approachable price tag, and fun, deep gameplay” leading to decent sales.

Rounding out the Top 20 of new releases was Krafton’s Inzoi, which surpassed one million sales within a week of its release in early access on March 28.

While R.E.P.O. was the main highlight on Newzoo’s overall player engagement charts for March, Assassin’s Creed Shadows and Atomfall made the Top 20 on Xbox’s individual chart at No.16 and No.18 respectively.
