Ubi reported that 6.8 Million people played GR:W Open Beta.
Setting a record for open beta participation.

Also reported was 2 BILLION minutes of gameplay in the Open Beta. ( I know I did more than 8 hours myself) and 60% played COOP mode

Time Check: 6 days until game is available!

No doubt that this game will be a big commercial success and it just proves how much in demand a good cooperative mode is.

Now the question remains--how many of those almost 7m players will buy the game? How many will get it now vs wait for a sale? Etc etc etc.
