Originally released way back in 2004. The "World of Warcraft" series and franchise of video games has seen a roller coaster of things especially with their success in terms of sales and popularity to the public. Yet their stint last year has gave them a significant boost due to some certain factors, including the fact that people were forced to stay at home due to the lockdown implemented by almost all countries in the world because of the pandemic brought about by the COVID-19 virus. And it has made not just Activision Blizzard but almost all other video game developers and publishers to seek the opportunity and increase their engagement to the public especially to the players and gamers in a full-blown global scale.
Continuous Rise of Activision Blizzard
Bloomberg has listed that the company itself made a staggering amount of up to 1.75 billion USD excluding some other items during this first quarter of 2021. This has yet to grow since it is just February of this year, and it is being expected that it may still some improvements over the course of their run as video game creators and publishers.
It also outlasted the prediction that was mentioned by analysts, wherein an amount of 1.68 billion USD was predicted for the company to gain which was eventually exceeded by the performance of Activision Blizzard. Yet with their currently in development plans and upcoming game releases with the future mobile video game titles for "Warcraft" now on the table, their overall performance may just soar in the coming months or years.
