Everyone expected Modern Warfare 2 to be a return to form for Call of Duty, both in player sentiment as well as launch revenue. Having already broken franchise records on Steam, and set a new standard for opening weekend sales, the game has achieved yet another milestone.
Activision announced that Modern Warfare 2 has now made over $1 billion in total revenue.
The figure was achieved in the game’s first ten days on sale, and it strictly covers sales to customers, making it the fastest game to reach $1 billion sell-through in Call of Duty history. Previous record holder was Black Ops 2, which amassed the same amount in 15 days.
