If they were cross platform they'd have even more :)

shabz6661295d ago

Seriously yes, even steam ea play and ea origis ea play arent cross platform.

I say this but I have ea play on steam and one the one x. So maybe I am part of the problem. Vote with your wallets people.

Don't believe these Sales Numbers! Every ear EA does the same thing they give away a lot of codes to EA access and games like Madden so that gamers will play Ultimate team.

blacktiger1295d ago

they do not mean actual subscribers monthly active payment I think it;s called, they are called under subscriber that can includes free trial, discount and like giveaway, those microsoft subscription numbers includes that $1 per month, and lot of people took the advantage, so Microsoft does the same thing uses that weird number that all corporation is known to do, including Sony but Sony is a tricky position where they can not use that tactic, otherwise they all fkin same, we da gamers who live on pay cheque to pay cheque are stuck!

Lol do you have any idea how popular Fifa is? It's literally the only football game people talk about

PrinceAli1295d ago

it deffo doesnt have 35 million people on it lool...

Zeref1295d ago (Edited 1295d ago )

Nah yall are definitely living in a bubble 😂😂

35M is perfectly possible for fifa

@PrinceAli

"Life to date, FIFA 20 has reached nearly 35 million players on console and PC."

I'm pretty sure EA is not allowed to lie about publically announced numbers. Life to date (not necessarily all active users at this point) across all consoles and PCs WW numbers that is perfectly achievable... And it would be unethical and illegal for a company to release numbers based on a lie.

FunAndGun1295d ago

I don't play Fifa. I don't play any sports games. But I do believe that number. That series is extremely popular worldwide.

badboyz091295d ago (Edited 1295d ago )

Fifa 20 sold only 24million. These Numbers are the amount of Users with Serval Fifa accounts not copies sold. EA uses a lot of Fluff to make it seem like more to the investors. Numbers are way down this year

MrNinosan1295d ago

Where I work it’s the most sold game year after year without any competition.
That’s in Sweden. I all Europe FIFA is insanely popular.

badboyz091295d ago (Edited 1295d ago )

35million accounts not copies sold. This includes the free codes they give away EA access,gameshares,users making new accounts etc... EA just making it sound way more than it does. The game probably sold a little over 20million.

Can't wait for my physical. I got in on the 2nd wave. Had an email a few weeks ago but I was figuring I wouldn't get the game till July August. Well worth that physical edition though.

And they'll cancel 50 of them, then lay off their staff within the next couple of years. I think Embracer's new logo should be a Boa Constrictor.

I hope Bluepoint are working on BB remake..
Sony now seem to have lost it with all the gaas, i have no hope in seeing them approaching FS to make a sequel. I hope gamers will push Sony and show continuous disapproval to the gaas model

Cacabunga3h ago

U probably right about the remake it is maybe too early. A performance mode would be more welcome at this point

fsfsxii1h ago

can we get new ideas instead of remakes? gamers are the most nostalgia driven on this earth istg

Chard1h ago

Look at how Bluepoint changed the art for demons souls. I wouldn’t want them doing that for Bloodborne

-Foxtrot3h ago

I don’t know how to feel, Armored Core just isn’t as good as Elden Ring, Dark Souls, Bloodborne and the like.

I hope he does a new IP instead

Fortunately, if you're not interested in the AC series, he doesn't say he plans to drop everything to work exclusively on the next one, as implied by the article header. Just general comments about it being an important series he wants to be involved with at some point.
