Officially the fastest-selling Star Wars game ever.

LucasArts today announced that since its worldwide launch earlier this month, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed has sold more than 1.5 copies and is well on its way to becoming the best-selling Star Wars game of all time.

“The record-setting sales of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed shows the undiminished power of Star Wars and its popularity across all media types, including video games,” said Darrell Rodriguez, president of LucasArts.

“We’re blown away by the response to the game.”

The sale of more than 1.5 million copies in less than week not only makes The Force Unleashed the fastest selling Star Wars game thus far, but also the fastest selling game LucasArts has ever released.
