In a Gamasutra-attended conference call, EA CEO John Riccitiello announced that the company's major first person shooter Battlefield 3 has shipped more than 10 million units since its launch earlier this week.
He also added that EA has already begun receiving reorders for the game to help replenish stock.
It's too early to get consumer sale numbers, "but sell through is strong," said Riccitiello.
DICE-developed Battlefield 3 launched October 25 across the PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3.
For comparison, EA's previous Battlefield title, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, released in March 2011 and has shipped 11 million copies to date.
"This is the biggest one-day shipment the company has ever done," added
company COO Peter Moore, explaining that it was roughly double last
year's Medal of Honor.
Earlier this week, analysts predicted that Activision's Modern Warfare 3 will sell twice as much as this latest Battlefield title.
@wolfkin I think Batman Arkham city shiped 5 million worldwide and was the biggest hit in europe, so you get the idea.
This is very impressive, most AAA games rarely go over 2 million on the first week. If MW3 is to ship 20 million copies that should be enough to pay all company costs for the next 10 years lol
especially impressive for a glitch filled mess of a game lol. soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many glitches I've encountered in this game that its mind boggling. It's like still in the beta stages bad.

Your ps3 must be on the fritz. I beat it 2x and have 8hrs+ in mp with no glitches. time to buy a new one
once day when i get back perma-online and I have a decent computer I'm going to demand videos of these glitches everyone is always finding. I played Fallout 3 for hours and never saw a glitch. To be fair the reason I stopped playing was a glitch that caused me to get lost but hours before that and nothing.
was the glitch called beer? I remember drinking and playing that game and losing my place lol Was that damn tree guy, could never find his area without a full guide lol
