It helped boost Ubisoft's sales dramatically.

Ghost Recon: Wildlands has seen massive success this year, no doubt, as sales charts lit up around the release back in March, and the game managed to keep the throne in many territories for several weeks. Now, thanks to the unveiling of the recent fiscal report by Ubisoft, we know a bit more about just how successful the game has been.

All of Ubisoft's sales during the first two quarters have helped push the company's revenue to an increase of 45.2% compared to last year, and the largest part of that is Ghost Recon: Wildlands, which Ubisoft claims is the biggest hit of 2017 so far. This is, according to the report, an estimate based on physical and digital sales between January and June in Europe, North America, Japan, and Australia.

Do you think the game outsold titles like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Horizon: Zero Dawn though?
