Electronic Arts announces that
Knockout City has attracted over five
million players since the launch of the multiplayer dodgeball game
a couple of weeks ago.
The game being free-to-play up to level 25 obviously helps boost that number.
It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for 'em. Here's
word:
THANK YOU, brawlers, for making the Knockout City game launch and Block Party an
amazing ten-day event that surpassed expectations! This party was unforgettable
in many ways, and we’re so excited to see the support and positivity pouring in
from you, our community! Since launch, we’ve seen 5 million new brawlers join us
in matches, there’s been amazing— and unexpected— gameplay, hundreds of
thousands of Crews were formed, over half a billion KOs landed, millions of
hours of gameplay were watched, and—dare we say it?—thousands of friendships
were made along the way. Who knew you could bond over hitting one another in the
face with a dodgeball?
