Electronic Arts provided an update on the performance of EA Sports FC 24 within a month of the game's launch. The game achieved results that exceeded the expectations of the company itself and even the biggest optimists.
EA announced last May that it had ended a nearly 30-year partnership with FIFA and that it planned to launch a new football brand, EA Sports FC. The series debuted in September with FC 24, which attracted more than 11.3 million players worldwide, including through EA Play, in the first week of its availability, the company said last month.
In the second quarter earnings results, published last Wednesday, EA said that during the first four weeks of its global launch, EA Sports FC 24 had “more than 14.5 million active accounts”. Commenting on its performance, EA CEO Andrew Wilson said that the company successfully launched the EA Sports FC club, turning one of the largest titles in the world into a powerful interactive platform for the future of football fans.
He added during the company's earnings call that the successful launch of the EA Sports FC game is a profound achievement. This is exactly what the company wants, especially after the huge money it was paying to FIFA as a result of using the name, and now all this money is being provided by the company.
The company had revealed that almost one and a half billion Games were played and almost 4.5 billion goals were scored by players also in the first month of the game's launch. What do you think of her performance.
