Homefront Sells 375,000 Units on Day One
THQ's new IP Homefront has shifted 375,000 units on its first day of sales (in the United States and Australia, with the European release on Friday) and is "already fulfilling re-orders" for the game from "multiple retailers", according to the company's CEO Brian Farrell.
THQ's chief of Core Games, Danny Bilson, was quick to chip in, pointing out how awesome he thought this development was.
"Due to the strong and growing demand for Homefront's multiplayer, we continue to add dedicated server capacity. We are confident that the large-scale multiplayer maps featuring 32 players, vehicles, infantry and drones, will continue to be a major draw for the huge audience of FPS gamers looking for a new experience over the coming months."
Whether these sales figures will have any impact on the already-damaged share price is yet to be seen, although THQ remain hopeful that the game will be seen as a "must-have purchase for gamers", with Bilson once again emphasising THQ's support for dedicated servers.
