It enjoyed the highest player numbers, hours logged, and total matches played in its opening weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Black Ops 6 is undeniably a huge success, not only because <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/call-of-duty-black-ops-6-multiplayer-review\">critics have praised its fast-paced multiplayer modes<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/call-of-duty-black-ops-6-campaign-review\">return to form single player campaign<\/a>, but there are some caveats to the figures boasted by Microsoft and Activision Blizzard.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/microsofts-69-billion-activision-blizzard-buyout-imminent-after-stock-halted-and-uk-clears-deal\">The former now owns the latter<\/a>, meaning Black Ops 6 was the first Call of Duty to launch straight onto Xbox Game Pass. Microsoft said Game Pass set a new record for new subscribers in one day, but didn&#8217;t reveal how many sales were lost as a result.<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of launch, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/call-of-duty-black-ops-6-could-boost-game-pass-by-up-to-4-million-subs-but-at-the-cost-of-6-million-lost-sales-analysts-predict\">analysts expected Black Ops 6 to boost Game Pass subscribers<\/a> by between 2.5 million and four million, but at the cost of six million lost sales. There&#8217;s also nothing to stop these new subscribers cancelling their subscription before it renews in November, effectively awarding them Black Ops 6 for $19.99 instead of the usual $69.99.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/call-of-duty-black-ops-6-biggest-call-of-duty-launch-ever-sets-new-single-day-game-pass-sub-record\">Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella attempted to offset these concerns in an investors call<\/a>, saying Black Ops 6 sales were up 60% compared to 2023&#8217;s Modern Warfare 3, but this entry was universally panned so naturally provided a bigger jump to Black Ops 6.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-3-single-player-campaign-review\">IGN&#8217;s review of the single player game awarded it a 4\/10<\/a>, for example, calling it &#8220;underbaked, rehashed, and cobbled together,&#8221; and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-3-multiplayer-review\">it otherwise peaked at a 6\/10 with our multiplayer review<\/a>. &#8220;Modern Warfare 3 reheats and reserves the same multiplayer from Modern Warfare 2 with some extra maps and tweaks,&#8221; we said.<\/p>\n<p>As these reviews insinuate, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/call-of-duty-2023-report\">Modern Warfare 3 was reportedly just an expansion for Modern Warfare 2<\/a> that Activision Blizzard moulded into a full entry as to not miss an annualized release. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/new-report-reveals-that-modern-warfare-3-development-time-was-half-that-of-a-normal-call-of-duty\">Its development time was reportedly just half what a normal entry is given<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/call-of-duty-devs-are-a-little-peeved-at-christopher-judges-dig-during-the-game-awards\">even industry peers poked fun at its release<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This let <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/hogwarts-legacy-beats-modern-warfare-3-as-best-selling-game-of-2023-in-the-us\">Hogwarts Legacy become the first non Call of Duty or Rockstar game to top U.S. sales charts<\/a> since 2008, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/call-of-duty-black-ops-6-campaign-dev-raven-didnt-react-to-modern-warfare-3-campaigns-terrible-reception-we-were-already-pretty-locked-in\">Black Ops 6 campaign developer Raven Software even commented on its reaction publicly<\/a> amid concerns for its new game.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s this historically low Call of Duty performance that Nadella said Black Ops 6 was performing 60% better than, so while still impressive, it&#8217;s not as grand a proclamation as it seems at first glance.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/call-of-duty-black-ops-6-outperforms-modern-warfare-2-and-3-on-steam-though-still-falls-to-warzone\">Black Ops 6 does appear to have outperformed 2022 release Modern Warfare 2 as well<\/a>, however, as Steam data shows it enjoyed a higher opening weekend.
