Unlike other competitive titles, Call of Duty is unique for its yearly release schedule. Accordingly, sales figures are important and reflect the interest of the community. Bearing this in mind, CoD MW 2 released this past week and it’s looking very promising!
CoD MW 2 – Looking Very Promising
As we’ll reiterate, the title has only been released recently. Indeed, launched globally on 28th October 2022, the community has had the opportunity to try out the title.
Accordingly, so far a total of $800 million in sales has been achieved by Activision-Blizzard within a few days. Here’s how that compares to the previous years:
- Call of Duty Vanguard – 42% less than MW2
- CoD Black Ops Cold War – 9% less than MW2
As a casual arcade shooter, the casual community has an interesting relationship with the competitive one. Accordingly, when the casual community is happy, the title tends to perform better and competitive receives more attention and support.
However, opening weekend sales may be somewhat misleading. Certainly, the success for a competitive title will involve post-launch support across the whole year of the Call of Duty League.
Regardless, it’s looking rather exciting!
