Electronic Arts has announced that FIFA 23 has set a launch record for the franchise, surpassing 10.3 million players in the first week. Sales figures for the game were not disclosed but it did top the European digital PlayStation charts for September 2022 despite only being on the market for three days.

Here’s what Nick Wlodyka, general manager of EA Sports FC, had to say:

The response from our fans has been nothing short of incredible, and we’re thrilled that our community is playing with their favourite players and teams across FIFA 23 in record numbers. With both the Men’s and Women’s World Cups, and exciting updates to our women’s club football content in game still yet to come, we’re just getting started on providing players with the most authentic and immersive experience yet.
