Battlefield Heroes Players Spending Big Money

A new report by IGN says that of players purchasing Battlefield Heroes items are spending quite a bit of money doing so.

The average buyer spends $20 at the Battlefield Heroes store, with 76 percent of all money spent going toward in-game clothing. Roughly 20 percent is spent on in-game experience boosts, with the rest attributed to emotes.

 

IGN originally reported that the game might be making up to $30 million for EA, but that was based on the assumption that every player was spending an average of $20 on the game.

EA has since corrected the story to note that while 1.5 million players have logged into the game, not all of them are actively buying items in the store.
