A subscription to Battlefield 3 Premium costs $50, meaning the service has now generated $200 million for EA. EA also announced that its Origin service now has 50 million users, including 22 million on mobile devices.

For the quarter, EA posted net income of $222 million on revenue of $495 million, up from $491 million during the same period last year. Of note, EA digital revenue for the period surpassed packaged revenue for the period by a healthy margin.

"EA had a solid quarter driven by continued digital growth and disciplined cost management," executive chairman Larry Probst said in a statement. "We are also executing on a clear set of goals for leadership on mobile, PC, current and next generation consoles."

The publisher also called out as a top performer during the period, posting its highest revenue quarter since launch in August 2012. EA's mobile and handheld digital revenue was also a bright spot, rising 30 percent to $103 million.
