EA's DICE today revealed that Battlefield 1943 is the fastest Xbox Live Arcade title to reach one million units sold. The online shooter title, which allows up to 24 players to compete simultaneously, is currently available on Xbox Live and PSN for $15, with a PC version coming soon.

“The reception of Battlefield 1943 continues to amaze us, even months after the game was released,” says Gordon Van Dyke, Producer on Battlefield 1943. “Being the fastest game to reach this milestone is an incredible achievement. The game has set a new standard for what can be done in the downloadable games category. It’s fantastic to see how gamers have recognized the value that the game delivers for just $15. It is another great entry point into the Battlefield franchise.”
