Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare Enters The Billion Dollar Club

At this points, nobody is surprised at the success of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare reboot. Here at Kakuchopurei, we found it was a great return to form for the franchise. Financially speaking, the results are pretty good too.

Activision has just published a press release revealing the game has officially crossed US$1 billion mark in sales. It also surpassed 500 million multiplayer hours played in the first 50 days after launch which is more than any previous Call of Duty titles released in the last six years.

Fun multiplayer and generally great FPS mechanics are definitely the reasons why this iteration of Modern Warfare is so successful. It’s also worth remembering it’s the first Call of Duty game to have crossplay and cross-progression support.

The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Season One update was recently released and features a host of new content including weapons, maps, game modes and more. To read up on that, check out our coverage of the Season One update.
