Activision Blizzard announced today that Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 made $500 million during its first weekend. The first-person shooter released for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on October 12.

That’s actually the same amount that last year’s Call of Duty: WWII made in its opening weekend. But Activion Blizzard also notes that Black Ops 4 set franchise records for combined players, average hours per player, and total numbers of hours played on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
