Battlefield 3 has become a colossal entity in the FPS genre, as DICE’s modern shooter has racked up 6.3 million active users.
The millions that are still causing havoc and blowing things up have helped Battlefield 3 along to a successful year in the shooting scene.
Battlefield 3 is “establishing itself as one of EA’s premier game services and in the process successfully took share in the growing First-Person-Shooter market,” said EA.
EA’s John Riccitiello also promised that the Battlefield franchise will be getting some exciting new developments as the new fiscal year progresses.
