Battlefield Hardline beta played by over 6 million people

Over 6 million people have already played the Battlefield Hardline beta, executive producer Steve Papoutsis has revealed.

“We’d like to take this opportunity to thank the community one more time,” Papoutsis wrote in a blog post celebrating the achievement.

“We love the two way dialogue we’ve established. And now that you’ve driven millions of miles in Hotwire, you’ve stolen billions of dollars in Heist, and you’ve continued to show mad love for Conquest, we can’t wait until you get a chance to play the whole package.”

Battlefield Hardline’s beta opened to all players across PS4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3 and PC last week, allowing users to try out three of the game’s online modes ahead of next month’s launch.  One player even managed to hit the game’s level cap, having put over 70 hours of playtime into the beta.

“Now, I know what you’re asking yourself,” Papoutsis continued. “We’re just five weeks away from the launch of Battlefield Hardline, how could we possibly be acting on that feedback? Well, I can assure you we are. In fact, we’ve already been prioritizing changes for things fans are talking about.”

Battlefield: Hardline is coming to PC, PlayStation 3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One on March 17 in North American and March 19 across Europe.
