Tencent Holdings’ Call Of Duty: Mobile has racked up 250 million downloads worldwide in under nine months, showing potential to become the most successful game on a mobile platform, according to data from app tracking firm Sensor Tower.

Developed by Tencent’s TiMi Studios under a license from Activision-Blizzard, Call Of Duty: Mobile reached the milestone just 265 days after launch even though it remains unavailable in China. To date, the game has amassed almost US$327mil (RM1.4bil) in player spending globally and now exceeds the downloads and revenue earned in the early days of Tencent’s PUBG Mobile, which has held the title of the world’s most profitable mobile game for the past nine months.
