Activision Monthly Active Players and Total Revenue Down. Games of a well-known company played at the end of the second quarter 94 million people per month. In contrast, there were 100 million monthly active users in the first quarter of this year.
Revenue fell to $1.64 billion in the second quarter from $2.3 billion in the same period in 2021. But Activision isn’t making a big deal out of it. The decline in both cases reflects lower engagement in Call of Duty than last year. Vanguard not so interesting. In addition, incomes in general are falling for everyone compared to incomes in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic.
Everything must be saved at the end of the year when it comes out Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 2. Much is expected from the continuation of the soft reboot of the popular series from Infinity Ward. Besides free Call of Duty Warzone 2.0 will also arrivewhich will be integrated into Modern Warfare 2. This means that you can expect the same innovations and thematic events similar to what was in the original Warzone at the time of the release of Vanguard.
Activision Call of Duty press release says more premium content in 2023 and subsequent years. We know from earlier that the new part should not be released next year, the developers were given an extra year to work on the changes. So the question is what exactly does the publisher mean by this.
