It seems Call of Duty: Black Ops has been selling well, quite well in fact! Activison announced this morning that the popular first-person shooter grossed more than $650 million worldwide in its first five days on sale. While it’s not really a surprise that Black Ops would be popular, it may surprise some of you to know that the game is now the best-selling item in any form of entertainment including the box office and books (Sorry Potter fans!). Curious to know how that transfers into the number of players? Take a look at these couple facts released by Microsoft!
According to Microsoft:
- More than 5.9 million multiplayer hours were logged playing Call of Duty: Black Ops by end of launch day, November 9.
- More than 2.6 million unique gamers played Call of Duty: Black Ops in one day on November 9.
