Unsurprisingly, the latest Call of Duty has made Activision Blizzard (and now Xbox) a lot of money.

About as surprising as BG3 winning game of the year. Call of Duty just endlessly prints money. Even when they underperform they make bank.

It makes sense, especially with US culture. Its the monster energy of video games.

They have people on the hook for sure. I honestly think a lot of it comes from the fact that progression carries over for the people who have sunk a lot of time into it recently as well as bringing back older maps from the CoD’s I used to play and getting older players back in. I, for one am not buying any of it. I’m just kind of worn out by the whole franchise in general.
