Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will likely be one of the top selling titles for March as it sold 2.3 million copies in North America and Europe. The game was released just a couple weeks ago, and is already proving to be a major seller for EA and DICE.
More stats were released today about the game. So far, there has been 81 billion points earned in online multiplayer sessions with some 43 million weapons and gadgets unlocked. There has also been more than 6 million video views on YouTube with 2.9 million hours spent playing online in the last 24 hours.
“We are so thrilled with the success of Battlefield: Bad Company 2 sales and fan response. In the first 48 hours we had such a tremendous rush to multiplayer gameplay that our servers experienced overwhelming demand. This is a testament to the massive response players have had worldwide for the extraordinary action experienced in the Battlefield sandbox,” says Karl Magnus Troedsson, Executive Producer, Battlefield Franchise. “DICE and EA have brought more servers online. We now have enough capacity to handle all BFBC2 connections seamlessly and we continue to monitor online play daily.”
Look for two, free new multiplayer maps coming out on March 30.
