Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 breaks records in the series

We can now say that the Call of Duty series is not dying without any shade of doubt. Some doomsayers foretold that the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 wasn't going to be enough for the series to recover from the apparently disastrous episode known as Call of Duty: Vanguard. The reality is that it was not that bad although it disappointed many players with a long list of problems at launch. In any case, it turns out that Modern Warfare 2 has already proven that the huge community of Call of Duty fans still supports the franchise and we can back this statement up with numbers and facts now.

 

 

Activision has confirmed that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has generated over $800 million in revenue in its first three days, leaving behind its predecessors in the series for a good margin and becoming the "No. 1 top-selling opening weekend ever" for the whole Call of Duty franchise. Whether this tendency will continue in the following weeks or not making the return of Task Force 141 the most profitable event in the story of the long-lived FPS franchise is yet to be seen. Some features are currently missing from the game but they will soon be added alongside additional content with the start of Season 01. The majority of players are satisfied with the current state of the game even though there are some bugs, and the situation is nothing similar to what happened with Vanguard.

 

 

Such numbers demonstrate that Call of Duty is nowhere near becoming a dead franchise, even if it currently has many more competitors than in the past and the genre is packed with good games, some of them even free-to-play.
