Record year for Call of Duty games: 200 million players worldwide | NOW

Shooting game series Call of Duty has a record year. The series brought in parent company Activision Blizzard $ 3 billion (€ 2.5 billion), 80 percent more than in 2019, reports Activision Friday.

The amount of copies sold is up 40 percent, the company said. Activision launched a mobile variant of the hit shooting game this year and disconnected battle royale mode from the game. Both free games provided the game giant with additional income through small purchases within the game.

According to the company, 200 million people played this year Call of Duty, the largest number ever. The new Warzone mode has reached the 85 million player mark.

Warzone will be integrated with the new game this month Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War.
