EA and Hazelight Studios’ new co-op action-adventure platformer Break up Fiction has reached a serious gross sales milestone, the 2 studios have introduced, and it solely took the sport a measly two days to get there.
Per a submit on Hazelight’s Bluesky web page, Break up Fiction managed to promote 1,000,000 copies inside its first 48 hours, which is a reasonably spectacular milestone. Hazelight says it is “past blissful” with the consequence and that it “cannot cease having fun with [fans’] superb reactions”.
Break up Fiction‘s sturdy efficiency most likely should not come as a shock on condition that it was EA’s second most-played recreation of all time on Steam only a day or so after its launch, shedding out solely to battle royale shooter Apex Legends (and I am unable to precisely blame it on that rating).
For context, it took round a month for It Takes Two to succeed in the identical milestone. That recreation would go on to promote greater than 20 million copies eventually rely, so it is completely doable that Break up Fiction will do even higher for itself.
In the event you’re not conversant in Break up Fiction, it is the most recent recreation from A Method Out and It Takes Two developer Hazelight Studios.
Just like the studio’s earlier video games (aside from Brothers: A Story of Two Sons), Break up Fiction can solely be performed as a co-op recreation; there is no single-player mode right here, because the story and gameplay each revolve closely round two people.
