Watch Dogs shifts four million units

Ubisoft has just confirmed that they've sold-through four million copies of Watch Dogs in the last week, making it the company's best ever week one release. Based on NPD and GfK Chart-Track estimates, it also looks like it might well be the best-selling new IP across the whole games industry.

"The results we achieved in the first week of launch are amazing and prove Ubisoft's commitment to developing new blockbuster IP and thoroughly new-gen experiences," said UK sales director Darren Bowen.

At the same time as confirming these impression sales figures, Ubisoft also confirmed that the Wii U version of the game was planned for fall 2014, news that'll be bittersweet for owners of the platform hoping to get hold of the game. You can read our review here.
