Long awaited Assassin's Creed 2 has already started seeing a good rise in sales numbers. With game enthusiasts gunning for the early copies, it is already showing good signs as compared to its predecessor and other hot video games.

Ubisoft's action-stealth game Assassin's Creed 2 in the first week sold around 1.6 million units worldwide. Which is much higher than Ubisoft's original medieval sneaker, which sold about 1.1 million units during its inaugural sales week in November 2007. Ubisoft has also showed some growth in market share, and as reported to Reuters Ubisoft was banking on the release of Assassin's Creed 2 to meet or exceed its 2009-2010 financial goals. The company's sales target for Assassin's Creed 2 is 8 million units. If they hit that or better, they'll be at least 15 points over Assassin's Creed's 6.8 million grab.
