Guillemot: PS4 and Xbox One pre-orders "two times" previous generation

Speaking in an investor call today, Ubisoft president Yves Guillemot claimed next-gen hardware pre-orders are well up on those seen in the previous round.

The Frenchmen said pre-orders for PS4 and Xbox One hardware are "two times" the level seen for PS3 and Xbox 360 at this time before launch.

The comment came in a call related to Ubisoft's first quarter, which also included hardened release dates for next-gen titles The Division, The Crew.
