While EAFC 24 is riding pretty high, having topped the European sales charts during September, its launch performance in the region is lagging a bit behind that of predecessor FIFA 23.
As reported by GamesIndustry.biz, which has published the month’s GSD data, the overall numbers for physical game sales during the month were slightly down in 2023 compared to 2022. EA Sports FC 24 is cited as the “main reason” for the decline of just over 1% in the numbers.
That said, the report does note that while the latest entry in the football franchise has performed at a decent clip following its release, certainly well enough for EA to be able to pick out some nice numbers for its press releases, it still lags behind FIFA 23’s stellar launch by about 10%.
