Battlefield 1’s launch has outperformed the combined week one sales of Battlefield 4 and Hardline in the UK.<\/p>\n

According to Chart-Track<\/a><\/strong> (which only tracks physical sales), Battlefield 1 has sold more copies in its first week than the two previous Battlefield games combined.<\/p>\n

The game has replaced FIFA 17 as the best-selling title in the UK and almost outperformed\u00a0the record-breaking launch\u00a0of Tom Clancy’s The Division.<\/p>\n

Although these figures don’t account for the vast number of copies sold online, it is safe to say that the international launch of Battlefield 1 has been a success.<\/p>\n
