There are other statistics for gamers to explore

Video game publisher Electronic Arts is delivering a new infographic, a huge one, designed to showcase the passion of the player communities that have created around its biggest titles, with details about the performance of releases such as FIFA 15, Dragon Age: Inquisition or The Sims 4.

The image is huge and interested gamers need to take a look at it in detail.

For FIFA 15, Electronic Arts says that more than 3.3 billion goals have been scored since the game was launched and that Saturday is the day of the week when the most matches are played, either because gamers have free time or because this is the moment when championships tend to deliver their most interesting games.

More than 113 million single-player hours were logged into Dragon Age: Inquisition, which has recently received a new major patch and which offers fans the option of downloading the tavern songs for free.

More than 10 million families were created in The Sims 4, and Electronic Arts also says the Vault that's part of the EA Access service on the Xbox One has been very successful, with more than 41 million sessions initiated by users.

More stats are associated with SimCity, Madden NFL 14, NBA 2K15, and more.

Electronic Arts needs to make Battlefield: Hardline a success

Last year was a solid one for the publisher, but this year might be a challenge early on as the company needs to make sure that Battlefield: Hardline is a success when it arrives in March.

The first-person shooter was delayed after a first beta showed problems with the core mechanics, and it will be interesting to see whether the community embraces the experience or not.

A new beta is supposed to be offered soon, with sources claiming that it might open as soon as February 3.

Later in the year, Electronic Arts will deliver its usual slew of sports simulation titles, with Madden and FIFA leading the line.

Another highlight of 2015 for the publisher is a new Star Wars-based shooter linked to the Battlefront series, which is being created by DICE and should be able to ride the wave of popularity linked to the new movies in the franchise.
