Call of Duty, Hearthstone, and King push Activision to record in-game sales revenues

Y’all are spending some serious cash on in-game purchases in Activision games.

The Call of Duty and Destiny publisher reported the results of its fiscal third quarter today, and it revealed that its games saw a record of nearly $1 billion in revenues from spending on in-game content through the three months that ended September 30. Call of Duty, Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft, World of Warcraft, and mobile games were all major contributors to those results. Activision explained that delivering new content provided players with new opportunities to spend their cash on microtransactions, and that’s a strategy it plans to continue using.
