Over 800,000 enlisted in Battlefield 3 Premium so far

4.6
In its first two weeks of availability, over 800,000 individuals have signed up for Battlefield 3 Premium. "We are very pleased with the performance so far," EA Games' Patrick Soderlund told USA Today. Still, Soderlund exercised caution on the outlook for Premium. "We're actually only two weeks into it, so it's a little early to tell how this is going to pay off. It certainly it looks very promising right now." Since launching in October, Battlefield 3 has shipped 15 million copies, Soderlund says.

Battlefield 3 Premium, announced a few weeks back at E3, gives those who plunk down a one-time fee of $50 early access to all DLC content, which non-Premium members must pay for piecemeal. The PS3 also has a weeklong exclusivity window for Battlefield 3 DLC – after that week, the DLC is then available to PC and Xbox 360. The first expansion pack, Close Quarters, is currently available on all platforms.

xXoJvGoXx Wow! so they made about $40,000,000.


Yup! CoD made a lot more though... =/


Yes but they have made $40,000,000 in the first two weeks.


Call of duty will always beat this game


CoD is horrible.


$40 Million in two weeks!
Damn!

But in all fairness I play COD because its easy, not because its any good.
I don't play BF Because its too strategic, takes to long to play.

Had the same issue with Bad Company and Medal of Honour.

800k.

That is alot of people.
How many bought COD Elite?

I didn't mainly because you put it into the game, yet with MSP you can buy the map packs cheaper.

Haven't yet played BF3, might rent it during the week give it a bit of a go. :)

Katsumi Not really surprised.. BF3 premium makes the game so much easier and better to play


It's so expensive though! =/


Its the same price as cod elite? maybe cheaper? I am not very well aware of all the benefits of BF3 premimum but im guessing cod elite gives many more benefits then BF3.

That's crazy that 800,000 are premium already. I love battlefield 3 < 3 It's a shame that Mw3 has more people to Cod Elite the BF3 has to premium. Lol Mw3 is terrible >:(
