Call of Duty Modern Warfare has not only sold well, it is still making good sales. Now there are incredible numbers.
- Call of Duty Modern Warfare steals from the competition?
- Incredible earnings: Modern Warfare surpasses FIFA 20
- Does the Battle Pass mean the end for loot boxes?
After Call of Duty WWII and Black Ops 4 met with a lot of criticism with their lootbox systems, Call of Duty Modern Warfare got another system missed. With the new Battle Pass, which made its way into the game in Season 1, players are now rewarded more for their achievements than for the amount of money they deposit into the game. Nevertheless, developer Infinity Ward posted record earnings in December 2019.
Call of Duty Modern Warfare steals from the competition: Even without loot boxes, massive revenue
The Battle Pass didn't make its debut in Call of Duty Modern Warfare, however. Battle Pass systems were already introduced in CS: GO or the Battle Royale games Apex Legends and Fortnite as an alternative to DLCs and loot boxes. Due to the huge revenue, the Battle Pass system will probably continue to accompany players in future Call of Duty games.
Call of Duty Modern Warfare revenue even outperforms FIFA 20
Market research company Super Data has now unveiled the top 10 video games with the highest earnings from microtransactions . In December, Modern Warfare players spent around $ 78.7 million on the Battle Pass, in-game currency, or bundles. Its predecessor, Black Ops 4 , made only $ 93 million in microtransactions in its first quarter. The switch to the Battle Pass seems to have been a success.

On the console, Call of Duty Modern Warfare even surpasses titles like Fortnite or Grand Theft Auto 5 . Even the lootbox king FIFA 20 could be pushed out of first place. Ultimate Team Modus in FIFA alone accounts for 28 percent of EA's annual revenue at $ 800 million . The next bundles are already pending. At the start of the Call of Duty League, the participating teams should receive their own skins and items - further record earnings are emerging.
After record revenue from Battle Pass: never again loot boxes in Call of Duty?
If the sales of Call of Duty Modern Warfare can keep the current level, there is no reason for the developers to return to the lootbox strategy. The first season in Modern Warfare has been extended. With the current update, a new, free weapon was even added, as reported by ingame.de *. Season 2 awaits players on February 11th. It remains to be seen whether the new Battle Pass will also be a success. The question of whether Battle Royale mode will come with the new season is still unclear.
