A few days after the official release of FIFA 17 became a hit around the world.
Grand advertising campaign created around the new football simulator from EA Sports unprecedented hype.
At the moment the game is on the way to becoming one of the best selling in franchise history.
From year to year among fans of the football simulator there is talk that Pro Evolution Soccer from Konami that’s put on the blades of FIFA, but this year it will not happen. Moreover, PES is even worse than usual.
According to the Institute GFK, in the first week after the release of EA Sports managed to sell over 1.2 million copies, breaking the record of FIFA 13. Moreover, these figures relate only to sales of games on physical media, and do not take into account the implementation of the electronic version, are therefore greatly understated.
As for PES 2017, in the same period the game is from Konami was purchased in number of only 30 thousand copies, which is about 40 times less than the sales of FIFA 17.
Thus about equal to two competitive games at the moment can not be considered.
