This announcement came from DICE, an EA studio in Stockholm, Sweden and the team behind the incredibly sucessful Battlefield 1943.

Not only has BF 1943 become the fastest selling title, but it is also the fastest selling day one and week one download-only title globally on Xbox Live as well as PSN. Overall since launch on July 8th, BF 1943 has sold over 600,000 copies on both platforms.

“We are honoured by the reception that the game has received so far,” says Gordon Van Dyke, producer of Battlefield 1943. “Watching and participating in this non-stop multiplayer action has been a real treat for us and we can’t believe how fast our fans reached 43 million kills. We can no truly say that we have set a new standard for what can be done in the downloadable games category and gamers recognize the endless value that Battlefield 1943 provides for just $15.”
