Story Highlight
  • The Call of Duty franchise has now rolled over half a billion sales worldwide, as confirmed by Activision Blizzard.
  • The recent launch of Black Ops 6 has played a massive role in bringing millions of new sales.

Call of Duty has seen its fair share of highs and lows, but the franchise has recently been making strides after strings of criticisms followed in the past few years. The recent launch of Black Ops 6 has finally pushed the series to new horizons that only a few franchises can boast about in the gaming industry.

After two whole decades filled with releases, the series has now sold over 500 million copies worldwide

Why it matters: Call of Duty officially selling over half a billion copies is a milestone that has barely been reached in the gaming industry. It highlights the significance of the series among gamers and critics alike.

Black Ops 6 Game Pass
A plethora of players have joined Xbox Game Pass after the day one launch of Black Ops 6 there.

Although released to mixed reviews, Black Ops 6 largely boosted the franchise sales to reach the new sales milestone. Speaking to The Washington Post, Activision Blizzard has officially confirmed the new massive milestone for Call of Duty.

The new sales record suggests that despite setbacks, the franchise has been able to bounce back and attract many old and new players. For those not in the know, Black Ops 6’s launch was dubbed the biggest in Call of Duty history, a feat that was by no means easy to achieve.

Moreover, the game helped Microsoft set a new record for day one players on Game Pass and subscriber additions on launch day.

Call of Duty Black Ops 6 Gulf War
Black Ops 6 has received a generally positive reception from the hardcore fans.

All in all, the player reception regarding the new milestone has been quite positive, with many celebrating the 500 million sales.
