In what could be the largest first day launch in video game history, Activision is reporting that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has made over $400 million during it’s first day release, selling over 6.5 million copies.
The newest release of the war shooter series, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, released on November 9, 2011 at midnight, broke the record set by the two previous games in the series.
Last year, Call of Duty: Black Ops made $360 million in the first 24 hours. In 2009 the first day sales for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was estimated to be $310 million. At this point it’s safe to say that the Call of Duty series will continue to skyrocket.
