Modern Warfare 3 Hits $1 Billion Mark in 16 Days

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 12/13/2011 01:36 PM | source: | 0 comment(s)

Activision has announced that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has set a new entertainment release record, reaching the $1 billion sales milestone in 16 days, one day faster than the film Avatar.

Santa Monica, CA- December 12, 2011 - Activision Publishing, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Activision Blizzard, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI), announced today that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 crossed the $1 billion mark in sales since its launch on November 8, 2011, according to Charttrack and retail customer sell-through information. Highlighting the trend of interactive entertainment gaining a greater hold of audiences worldwide, the game achieved this milestone in just 16 days, eclipsing the record set in 2009 by the feature film "Avatar," which reached the $1 billion milestone in 17 days.

While 2011 box office revenue is on the decline - down 4 percent this year at $9.4 billion, compared with $9.8 billion in 2010 -- the number of people purchasing and participating in gaming is on the rise, with no sign of slowing. With more than 30 million gamers, the Call of Duty community now exceeds the combined populations of the cities of New York, London, Tokyo, Paris and Madrid.
