Tencent Holdings Ltd’s Call Of Duty Mobile has attracted 20 million gamers within the first two days of its worldwide debut, a big boost for the company’s ambition of adapting top-tier titles with global name recognition for smartphones.
Based on Activision Blizzard Inc’s marquee PC and console franchise, Call Of Duty Mobile generated a quick US$2mil (RM8.37mil) in player spending after rolling out in the US, Europe, India and Latin America, researchers at Sensor Tower said. Its downloads rivalled those for Nintendo Co’s Mario Kart Tour over its first two days, one of the most successful mobile game launches ever, according to their findings.
