Titanfall 2 Sales Struggle, Battlefield 1 Has Strong Launch

Nathan Gibson battlefield1, consoles, EA, FPS, peformance, Sales, shooter, Titanfall 2 0

It seems like Titanfall 2 will fail to meet the expectations of publisher EA and analysts, with research firm Cowen & Company reporting that the sales projection for the game has been dramatically reduced since its release last week. According to the company, the shooter is only expected to sell around 5 million copies, a significant drop compared to its initial forecast, which was originally around the 9 million mark. This poor performance relative to estimates is despite the fact that the game has received a strong critical reaction, including a current Metacritic score of 91. The problem seems to be that the game has released sandwiched between Battlefield 1 and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. Although EA CEO Andrew Wilson was confident that this wouldn’t be a problem as he felt that Titanfall 2 was a very different game to those two alternatives with a very different audience. “[Shooters are] a giant category in our industry, $4.5 billion, there’s a very broad and diverse set of players who are

Overwatch Reaches 20 Million Players

Blizzard used a press release today to reveal that they have no reached more than 20 million players since release, making the game one of the most successful launches in recent times. The success is even more remarkable considering how Overwatch has only been available for some five months and is a full retail game rather than a free-to-play title like Team Fortress 2. While 20 million players may not equate exactly with that many sales, it is likely that the game is approaching the kind of sale numbers that only blockbuster titles like Call of Duty and Grand Theft Auto can achieve. Overwatch is currently hosting a Halloween Terror event. This means that Loot Boxes have been changed to jack-o-lanterns that contain specially made spooky content and a new horse mode has been introduced to give players the chance to battle a variety of new enemies. The new cosmetic items include profile icons, sprays, victory poses, skins, emotes, amongst a variety of other items. Last week, the developer revealed
