The company which publishes top-rating games such as Assassin's Creed and Ghost Recon says its sales surge is looking on track for the remainder of the year.

According to an upbeat Yves Guillemot, President and CEO of Ubisoft, "As expected, 2008 is off to be a record year for the videogame market and our games have performed remarkably well in this context. Assassin's Creed and our Games For Everyone brands continued their strong performance and Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 had a better than expected start. One year after the great success of the first title, the second iteration, which provides another unique multi-player experience in the much enjoyed Tom Clancy environment, is ranked among the top games on Xbox360 and Playstation 3 in almost every country."
