Since it launched in November of last year Infinity Ward’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has achieved the staggering milestone of making over one billion dollars at retail worldwide. Activision sent out a press release stating that its own internal estimations clock in at this massive number.
“Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has exceeded our expectations and shattered theatrical box office and video game records,” said Robert Kotick, CEO of Activision Blizzard. “There are only a handful of entertainment properties that have ever reached the $1 billion mark, which illustrates the power of the Call of Duty franchise and mass appeal of this game.”
The game has outpaced five-day worldwide box office gross figures of James Cameron’s Avatar movie, The Dark Knight and Harry Potter: The Half-Blood Prince.
