Since its launch in October 2019, the free-to-play mobile first-person shooter has been downloaded over a billion times, Activision has announced.
The mobile battle royale offshoot reportedly generated $1.4 million in its first four days, compared to Call of Duty Mobile's $4.2 million.
This follows a recent statement by Microsoft that the mobile shooter is "expected to be phased out over time" following the launch of Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile.
In the long term, Microsoft wants to slowly replace Call of Duty Mobile with the upcoming Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile.
Since launching in 2020, Call of Duty: Warzone has had over 125 million players. Over 3,000 people are working on the franchise currently.
The free-to-play shooter saw "well above" $1 billion in player spending in 2021, with MAU almost equaling the series' PC and console numbers.
Activision attributes the steep drop-off to lower player engagement in Call of Duty: Warzone and relatively lower sales for Call of Duty: Vanguard.
Also releases more details on Season 3.
Activision's shooter franchise is one of the most successful entertainment properties of all time.
Over 200 million people played Call of Duty in that period.
The iconic map will be on the go soon.
