“FIFA 13” has easily been one of the most successful games of the year and with a new FIFA game being released each year, the popularity has increased accordingly. Previously, it was reported that “FIFA 13” boasted major profits from opening day sale. At that time, EA released the game’s sales figure that showed the game’s demand in the market.
As of now, FIFA 13 has sold through over 7.4 million units across all platforms worldwide in the first four weeks since launch. Critics, currently, are also praising its quality of gameplay with over 100 review scores of 90 or above, alongside fans who are playing “FIFA 13” in record numbers. On an average, nearly 11.3 million games are being played daily.
The game sold 1.23 million copies in the UK alone within the first 24 hours of its release, making it only the second franchise to have ever done so in the region. Previously, it also did well in the U.S., selling 353,000 copies on the first day itself.
However, on launch, the game did face a bit of problem with several glitches and crashes. It was later determined that because of the franchise's massive popularity, that it has garnered over the years, a huge number of fans want to play the game at the same time, which causes problems.vNonetheless, the company released fixes accordingly so as not to lose out on the popularity it has boasted for several years.
The "FIFA 13" Bonus Edition for PS3 and Xbox 360 users will hit the shelves on Nov. 30, in time for the holiday season.
