Call of Duty Black Ops 3

Following the NPD’s report of Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 being the best-selling title of 2015 in the United States, Call of Duty franchise general manager Rob Kostich revealed that the franchise has now crossed 250 million units sold in its lifetime.

“This also marks the seventh year in a row that Call of Duty has been the #1 selling franchise in North America, according to NPD.

“In fact, Call of Duty has surpassed 250 million units sold life-to-date worldwide. This achievement is thanks to the amazing experiences created by all of our development teams, and would not be possible without the incredible passion from the Call of Duty community.”

Currently, Activision is looking forward to this year’s effort which will be coming from Infinity Ward, who’s last game was Call of Duty: Ghosts (which released in 2014 to mixed reviews). Are you looking forward to more Call of Duty? Let us know in the comments.
