Call of Duty is the top selling console game franchise of 2016

Activision Publishing has announced that Call of Duty is the #1 top-selling console video game franchise globally for 2016 based on revenue.

This marks the seventh time in the last eight years that Activision’s on-going hit franchise has been the top-selling console franchise worldwide, and the eighth consecutive year in the U.S. According to NPD, the most recent release, Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare is the #1 top-selling video game on console in the U.S. for 2016 based on total revenue and units sold from physical and digital sales (excluding hardware bundle sales).

"We’re thankful to our players for once again putting Call of Duty on top, and we recognize how rare this is – to do year after year. That’s why we push to deliver innovations and incredible gameplay that are worthy of the best fans in the world time and again," said Eric Hirshberg, Activision CEO.

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare was released in November for PC, Xbox One and PS4.
