Battlefield 6 has struck gold, crushing franchise records as it sells millions in its opening weekend. This outstanding performance comes after years of sluggish and less-than-stellar releases, which had in many ways tarnished the series' reputation, now (almost) fully reclaimed.
As per an EA press release, BF6 has sold over seven million copies in its first three days on the market, surpassing all previous titles' opening weekends. Over 172 million matches have been played since launch, with the game itself rising to nearly 750,000 concurrent players on Steam alone during its release day. It's an incredible achievement given how poorly previous games had performed, essentially placing the franchise in stasis for nearly a decade after Battlefield 1.
