The excitement around Call of Duty: Modern Warfare did not die down until the release itself, and in the first week the game took first place
What is known
According to Gamesindustry.biz, then in the first week Call of Duty: Modern Warfare was purchased by 39% more gamers than Black Ops 4 during the same period. And this is taking into account the decline in the popularity of physical editions. At the same time, Modern Warfare 2019 did not overtake Call of Duty: WWII, but the chart did not take into account digital sales, so the situation may change in favor of the new CoD.
Despite the stoppage of the distribution of Callof Duty: Modern Warfare for PlayStation 4 in some countries, the Sony platform collected 62% of all sales. At the same time, Xbox One players took only 38%.
According to Gamesindustry.biz, the success of the new MW pushed FIFA 20 to second place, and WWE 2K20 closes the top three. The Outer Worlds, the spiritual successor to Fallout: New Vegas, only managed to climb to fourth place. The game was already released on Xbox Game Pass at launch, so only 22% of sales came from Xbox One, and the PlayStation 4 audience took 78%.
