All categories saw a decline in their share from the same period last year, with the exception of PC and "Other" titles, which increased 5%. "Other" is defined as mobile and "ancillary" platforms.Overall sales for Ubisoft were down 57.2% over the same period last year, but the company is still on track with its own full-year estimates.
