We also want to thank the community for your incredible support. The launch of Modern Warfare is only the start. There’s much more to come.”

Sales figures based on retail customer sell-through information and Activision data and estimates. Reported movie sales according to publicly available data.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare features a new engine delivering an immersive and photo-realistic experience across the entire game.
