Call Of Duty: Warzone sees huge spike in players and revenue

08/13/2020 Entertainment


Activision boasted a major second quarter in its financial results, driven in part by the rapid growth of its free-to-play Call of Duty: Warzone. Last year’s Call of Duty spin-off: Modern Warfare reached more than 75 million players to date, according to the company’s financial report for the second quarter of 2020. It appears that many of those players are also interested spend in cash. With Warzone updating over time, it should remain a much-anticipated source of revenue. That could include content from the unannounced CoD 2020, too.

That’s the first updated player count we’ve heard since the high council on its explosive first month with 50 million players. The growth over the last few months has been slower since its debut, but that in itself is not surprising, and another 25 million is still a huge success.

The success of Warzone has also had a knock-on effect with Modern Warfare. Activision Blizzard said Modern Warfare has added more players outside of launch area than ever before, mostly due to players upgrading from Warzone. The company has already indicated that Warzone will continue to evolve with content from future releases of Call of Duty campaign. A tease in the game could even be a sign of what’s coming out of this year’s installation, likely a new take on the Black Ops series.

For the quarter ending June 30, 2020, Activision Blizzard reported net revenue of $ 1.93 billion, up from $ 1.4 billion for the same period last year. Digital revenue grew to $ 1.59 billion, compared to $ 1.09 billion for the same period. The company’s revenues have been under control recently, both paying for CEO Bobby Kotick and a more recent pay-sharing campaign from Blizzard employees.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Warzone are currently preparing for the launch of Season 5, which will include new maps, some major changes to the Verdan Battle Royale map, and more. Fans have speculated that Warzone will also serve as a teaser or even tie in the announcement of the next Call of Duty, which is rumored to be a Black Ops game.
