Battlefield 6 blows past 7 million copies in 3 days, 'the biggest launch in franchise history'
https://www.pcgamer.com/games/fps/battlefield-6-blows-past-7-million-copies-in-3-days-the-biggest-launch-in-franchise-history/
Electronic Arts needed Battlefield 6 to be a hit, and it sure looks like it is. More than seven million copies of the game were sold over the first three days of release, making it "the biggest opening ever" for a Battlefield game.
Along with the impressive sales milestone, the opening weekend also saw more than 172 million matches played online, and more than 15 million hours watched on streaming services—both very big numbers. All told, it's "the biggest launch in franchise history," EA said, and enough of a win that even Battlefield boss Vince Zampella, whose frustrations with technical troubles boiled over publicly during Battlefield 6's launch, is all smiles now.
