I haven't really found any specific sales data. The only figures seem to compare its sales to Battlefield 1, which is one of the best received Battlefield games and the best selling. If years of being the most hated games company and supposed boycotts still cause a game to be sold in millions I doubt a supposed boycott of a semi popular game will do any damage. In fact I believe this move will make the Epic games store a hell of a lot more popular and will create a serious alternative to Steam in the coming years. |
Battlefield V this holiday sold way under expectations and Battlefront 2 last holiday the same.
BF2 post launch support was delayed 6 months while they regrouped and now it seems we're getting much less then originally planned. Probably because it didn't sell well enough to justify it.
I'm in a Battlefield clan with 47 members. Every single person bought BF3 and BF4 but after what happened with hard-line, battlefront and then the shitshow of a launch for BF2 only about 6 of us got it and that was a month later at half price. Battlefield V four bought it and there's 3 of us waiting until its $10 on sale. If they make the next Battlefield more modern and launch it properly with enough content and no bullshit you'll see a major jump in sales.
