PC has more “Net Bookings”/Sales than PS4 last quarter says Ubisoft

In Q4 2018/19, PC accounted for a higher percentage of “net bookings” (sales), than both PS4 and Xbox One, rising to account for 27% of net booking/sales over the full fiscal year. 

When compared to 2017/18, PC is up 79%, and UPlay is up 150%, generating 27% of the company’s revenue when compared to 18% the previous year. PC is a growing business for Ubisoft, and right now it is earning more money than Sony’s PlayStation 4. 

With the release of The Division 2, Ubisoft has seen UPlay sales for the franchise increase by a factor of 10x when compared to the series’ previous outing. This is due to Ubisoft’s partnership with Epic Games, which prevented the game’s release on Steam, moving PC gamers to alternative storefronts where the publisher could benefit from an increased revenue share. High Season pass sales have also contributed to Ubisoft’s sales growth on both PC and consoles.
