Call of Duty: WWII has finally made its debut on multiple consoles. And, quite honestly, it has been a huge success despite certain business practices I don’t approve of. In fact, this game has conquered UK’s top charts in just a few days.

It appears like the return to the World War II aesthetic was a good return in terms of story. Call of Duty: WWII has generated around $500 Million Dollars in just 3 days of being in the open market.

According to the folks at Activision, the game’s income has beaten that of grand cinematic productions. Popular films such as Wonder Woman and Thor: Ragnarok are nothing to the video game titan, it seems.

Activision also added that the game reached the highest total connected users on current generation consoles and PC in Call of Duty history. Eric Hirshberg, CEO of Activision, provided the following statement:

“Call of Duty: WWII Returns the franchise to its roots and the results are incredible, selling twice as many units in its opening weekend as last year and setting the day one record for full-game downloads on PlayStation 4.” Said Eric, who soon drew the comparison to the aforementioned films.

COD: WWII’s success is nothing short of impressive. The game certainly gained a huge attraction thanks to the return to the series’ roots. Unlike the infamous Infinite Warfare that did the exact opposite.

In fact, the only “Success” Infinite Warfare got came from the game being bundled with a remaster of the more popular Modern Warfare. A game that has been dubbed by fans of the series as the best in the franchise.

It speaks volumes about what gamers are interested in seeing when it comes to games like these. Once again, I can’t say it’s a great game considering its shady practices with Loot Boxes. But hey, nice to see the numbers growing.
