Microsoft CEO Boasts Record-Breaking Launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has achieved record-breaking launch sales, marking the highest in franchise history, according to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella.

The shooter set a new record for first-day player counts, thanks in part to Game Pass subscriptions. Sales on other platforms have also increased, although Nadella did not provide specific figures.

Last week's launch of Black Ops 6 was the biggest Call of Duty release ever, setting a record for day one players, as well as Game Pass subscriber adds on launch day. Unit sales on PlayStation and Steam were also up over 60 percent year-over-year.

Meanwhile, Activision noted that cumulative Call of Duty sales have surpassed 500 million copies. The franchise now has 21 main installments.

Black Ops 6 is an amazing game, and the response from the Call of Duty community has been incredible. This is only the beginning. Nuketown is only days away and Season 1 is right around the corner. We're just getting started.
— Matt Cox, General Manager of Call of Duty
