Battlefield 1 launch is the biggest in DICE’s history!

Battlefield 1 is the most anticipated game for the holiday this year, along with Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. The game has created a lot of hype, and players anticipated this game a lot. On October 21, the game was released to the market. Infinite Warfare was released later, on November 4, and its result fell short compared to older games in the franchise. On the other hand, Battlefield 1, according to DICE’s statement, has gone on to become the biggest launch in the history of the company in its first ten days only!

The result is based on the number of daily active players. DICE has reported that players have spent a total of 59 million hours in the game already in the first ten days! Among those, nine million hours were spent on the new Operations mode. Furthermore, 32 million Battlepacks were earned, and players deployed a total of 1.6 million Behemoth vehicles. The deadliest weapon of that timeframe was the Scout knife, and horses have killed 5.8 million times, making it the deadliest soldier-killing “vehicles”. Many interesting numbers have also been recorded, and you can check them out in the infographic here.

The Suaez map is also being updated to have more capture points for the Conquest mode.
