A company does not release a new product expecting it to do worse than the previous one, because if that's the case, why release it at all, instead of something that would make more money instead? Disney did not expect Rise of Skywalker to do worse than Last Jedi. Activision did not expect Vanguard to do worse than Modern Warfare, etc.
