Nearly simultaneous release of the game Star Wars: The Force Unleashed immediately for the six different platforms brought significant profit: the project for five days has been sold in 1.5 million copies. This is officially the most fast-selling game of Star Wars from LucasArts. On the total, 4.3 million copies have gone on sale and the publisher already has to make new discs on order to meet all the demand.
The new game from LucasArts came out for PS3 and Xbox 360 in the United States on the16th of September. Later it reached Australia and Europe. The developers believe that a huge number of copies sold shows the real potential of the brand.
