Over a million copies sold exclusively in the UK during its launch week have positioned EA Sports FC 24 as a significant success. Specifically, this includes 924,000 digital copies and 150,000 physical copies. Despite concerns about a potential decline in interest following EA’s departure from FIFA, it is clear that the American publisher has effectively managed the transition. Extensive promotional efforts were implemented globally, including launch events featuring prominent footballers to increase brand visibility. This strong performance surpasses Hogwarts Legacy’s UK launch figures, demonstrating that Electronic Arts can achieve substantial sales independently of the FIFA brand. Future sales data from other countries, such as France, will be crucial in assessing whether this success is widespread or limited to the UK market. We will provide updates on this development.
