Ubisoft: Watch Dogs is Europe’s fastest-selling new IP, not Destiny

Despite Activision’s claims that Destiny is Europe’s fastest-selling new IP — alongside North America to boot — publisher Ubisoft has countered, saying that honour belongs to Watch Dogs.

“Congratulations to Activision and Bungie for taking the title in North America and the UK, but Watch Dogs is still going strong and we’re proud of everything that the Watch Dogs team has accomplished so far,” an Ubisoft spokesperson said to MCV UK.

Ubisoft didn’t dispute that Destiny was faster-selling in the UK specifically.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
