EA wants a hit with World War I shooter Battlefield 1, and if the game's recent beta is anything to go by, then the publisher's got a real blockbuster on its hands. The public beta, which ran for just over a week, attracted a whopping 13.2 million players. That's a seriously impressive statistic.

Putting things into perspective, Star Wars Battlefront's beta raked in 9.5 million players, while Destiny's beta had 4.6 million - and just think, the latter was deemed a colossal success at the time.
