Activision‘s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is officially the biggest-selling game of 2022 in the US, despite having only launched back in late October.
The military shooter had some stiff competition to say the least, with Elden Ring, God of War Ragnarok and Pokemon Scarlet and Violet all among some of the biggest-selling games of the year. Beyond that, Modern Warfare 2 is also the fastest-selling Call of Duty game period, having raked in a massive one billion dollars in 10 days.
Last week, it was revealed that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and God of War Ragnarok were the UK’s big winners for November 2022.
Developed by Infinity Ward, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was released on October 28, 2022 for PS4, PS5, PC, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One. You can read our full review on the game here.
Looking ahead, Activision has announced that a premium Call of Duty release will happen next year, although this is heavily rumored to be an expansion for MW2. A separate report claims that the game is getting a new campaign focussing on Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley, so this could be 2023’s offering.
