Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Demo: Over Two Million Downloads

Patrick Bach, Senior Producer on EA and DICE’s Battlefield: Bad Company 2, made the following statement very recently: “We couldn’t be more thrilled to hear that Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is already in the hands of almost 2½ million gamers, and it hasn’t even shipped yet.” This is a very impressive figure, especially when taking into account that Patrick Bach is not talking about the PC version of the game, but only about the demo that was released on PlayStation Network and Xbox Live. With over two million downloads in five days, the Bad Company 2 teaser is “on pace to become the fastest downloaded demo in EA history,” according to EA. At the same time, the PC version is getting “hundreds of thousands” sign-ups, which definitely shows just how successful the demo of Bad Company 2 is. Let’s see if this can carry over to the full game, which releases on the 5th of March 2010 in Europe and South Africa for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox360.
