After a record-breaking first weekend in the UK, EA Sports has confirmed that its FIFA 09 has hit 1.2 million sales in Europe after less than a week on sale. The achievement makes it the fastest start in the history of the award-winning franchise.

The title is available on PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, PC, PS2, DS, PSP and mobile.

"FIFA 09's great kick-off is a testament to our loyal fans across Europe, who simply can't wait to get their hands on the game," said Peter Moore, president of software maker EA Sports.

"FIFA 09 is EA's best football offering to date, featuring game modes, such as Be A Pro: Seasons, 10 vs 10 Online Team Play, FIFA 09 Clubs and the Adidas Live Season service.

"This is our fastest selling FIFA game of all time and it's rewarding to see the game so high on the list of must-have titles this holiday."

EA Sports is represented by FGL Entertainment Ltd, a subsidiary of the Forestals Group. FIFA 09 is available from all Forestals and The Matrix outlets in Malta and Gozo.
