EA have announced that Battlefield: Bad Company 2, released earlier this month has sold-through 2.3 million copies (according to internal data) so far across three platforms in Europe and North America. It is on track to becoming the best selling release of March.

A happy quote courtesy of the press release:

"We are so thrilled with the success of Battlefield: Bad Company 2 sales and fan response. In the first 48 hours we had such a tremendous rush to multiplayer gameplay that our servers experienced overwhelming demand. This is a testament to the massive response players have had worldwide for the extraordinary action experienced in the Battlefield sandbox," says Karl Magnus Troedsson, Executive Producer, Battlefield Franchise. "DICE and EA have brought more servers online. We now have enough capacity to handle all BFBC2 connections seamlessly and we continue to monitor online play daily."

Here are some bullet points provided by EA to illustrate the success of Battlefield: Bad Company 2:

- 81B points have been earned in online multiplayer sessions
- 43M weapons and gadgets have been unlocked in online multiplayer
- Over 6M video views on YouTube
- 2.9M hours have been spent playing online in the last 24 hours alone
- 230K peak-concurrent-users (PCUs)
- Over 44k Twitter fans (most out of any EA title)

Still, I'm curious to see what numbers Final Fantasy XIII pull off in Europe and North America.
