Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 has just released to the delight of fans everywhere. While it’ll be a while before we have any big sales information, Activision has released a statement indicating it’s doing well. This comes per charlieintel.com, as Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 has the biggest digital release in Activision’s history.
More on the digital launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4:
Call of Duty®: Black Ops 4 has set a new launch day record as the biggest day one digital release in Activision history. Digital sales for the first day of release broke the franchise record set in 2017 by Call of Duty®: WWII. Released Friday, Black Ops 4 also set a new PlayStation record for day one digital full game sales on PlayStation Store, globally. The title also quickly became the best-selling Activision Xbox One digital game on day one, globally. The first Call of Duty release ever on Blizzard’s Battle.net, the PC version of Black Ops 4 also delivered a new franchise high in which launch day PC digital sales more than doubled year on year.
We’ll have to wait and see just what that means for sales overall. Part of that increase in bound to come from the natural decline in physical sales and the rise in digital sales but we’ll see what happens. Seeing as Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 has the biggest digital release in Activision’s history, I also wonder how this will affect the inclusion of campaigns in these games moving forward.
