Activision’s Warcraft loses steam, Call of Duty shines


Call of Duty Elite 2

SANTA MONICA (California): Activision Blizzard revealed it has lost almost a million users for its World of Warcraft cash cow, dampening enthusiasm for its blockbuster Call of Duty franchise and wiping 3% off its share price.

The largest US videogames publisher raised its earnings outlook due to strong demand for its top shooter title, which began selling midnight Tuesday. But Wall Street fretted over the loss of subscriptions to the online fantasy game, one of its top profit generators.
