CoD: WW2 sales surpass $500 million worldwide over release weekend

4.1
Call of Duty: WW2 is a hit, and became such after just three days of availability.

Activision announced today that weekend sales for Call of Duty: WW2 surpassed $500 million worldwide. This figure is double that of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare’s launch weekend.

The figure is sell-through to customers, not shipped, which is sold retail.

Along with the massive monetary figure, the first-person shooter also set a PlayStation 4 record by becoming the “best-selling digital full game,” by units sold on day-one. It also saw the highest, total connected users on current-gen and PC for a Call of Duty game.

According to company estimates, the $500 million figure tops the box office openings for Thor: Ragnarok and Wonder Woman combined.

Overall, unit sales at launch doubled year-over-year globally compared to Infinite Warfare, which sold 1.8 million copies in its first week. Over in the UK, Call of Duty: WW2 sales were up 57% compared to last year’s entry.

$500 million is a lot of money that's for sure. I wouldn't be suprised if it hits 1 billion

There's good reason behind why it's been so successful. Once the bugs have been patched, I can see myself playing this game regularly until the next Call of Duty is released.

First cod to keep me gripped for more then a day since MW3.

IM liking it so far, just needs fixing.

THQPosted:

I bought into the hype and I'm not saying it's a bad game. But I have gotten bored of it already sadly. I don't think any cod (or game) will match up to the feeling of wanting to stay up all night for weeks like MW2 did

Its because there maybe actually starting to listen to us? Don't listen to fans you don't get no where in the gaming industry especially now a days.

Because it's actually a boots on the ground and realistic game and not the space jumping nonsense..
