Going by Steam concurrent numbers for BFV and 2042, and I'm guessing might be the same for consoles too, they might be clever Lmfaooooo

Hey 2042 day 1 buyers:

Nice numbers, and to think what it would be if BF2042 didn’t shit the bed.
Interesting to see consoles’ decline in the share of revenue, still the majority though.
Is ‘in-game revenue’ corporate speak for microtransactions?

Love the way they plaster Fifa with the EA sports badges and Fifa badge. The brand war on it is real.

It was a record year for the publisher, which reported total net bookings of $7.5 billion, up 21% year-over-year.

“Live services net bookings grew 17% year on year to nearly $5.4 billion, and made up over 71% of our total business,” said EA’s chief financial officer Chris Suh. “Full game sales were up 34% to $2.1 billion.”
