EA now calls Battlefield 6 the best-selling shooter of the year. If you visit the Electronic Arts website and open the Battlefield 6 section, the banner is right there. It is a bold claim, especially with Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and ARC Raiders also fighting for the top spot. Still, fans seem pleased. Many have said this win feels well-earned.
Battlefield 6 stands strong in a crowded year
EA is thanking players for the support. The publisher once hoped for around 100 million players. That did not happen. Even then, the launch numbers were strong enough to push the game ahead of the competition. It shows how quickly the series bounced back after years of trouble.
This has been praised as a major return for the franchise. It took several core studios to pull it together. The final product is not perfect, but it is easily the strongest entry in many years.
Anyone visiting the Battlefield 6 page will now see the “best-selling shooter” tag. The timing is interesting. The last three weeks alone have seen millions of sales across Black Ops 7 and ARC Raiders. Yet Battlefield 6 still holds the top position.
There is more to come. EA plans long-term support, with REDSEC already added as a new battle royale mode. It is meant to stand against big names like Call of Duty: Warzone. For now, the momentum is fully with Battlefield 6.
