Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare UK sales down almost 50% on Black Ops 3

4.5
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare released last week and the reviews haven’t been too shabby.

So it’s a bit of a surprise to see that sales of Infinite Warfare in the UK are down 48.4% compared to last year’s Black Ops 3 launch. The latter did have the benefit of the Xbox 360 and the PS3 to bump its numbers, but accounting for the extra platforms, sales are still down by almost 44% according to Gfk Chart Tracker.

Whether the drop in numbers is down to disgruntled players who have jumped ship with the introduction of what some might call a pay-to-win multiplayer model, or just simply fatigue with the series is anyone’s guess, but the title still managed to debut at the top of the charts.

Battlefield 1 dropped down to no. 2, followed by FIFA 17 and Skyrim. You can check out this week’s top 10 titles below.

Bjj Yeah if they sold mwr separately I bet sales would increase


Completely agree with you, I'm not buying it unless they sell it separately. It's a ridiculous price if you buy it now, especially since I wouldn't touch Infinite Warfare.

Only being available on next gen would be an impact.

DeftonesPosted:

Not a surprise.
Hopefully they start to get the message we've been trying to send for 3 years.

OGPosted:

Hopefully they end up selling MWR by itself, maybe that will boost up sales just for MWR

I'm glad it's down by 50% I've got it but only for MWR not even touched IW

NickPosted:

I'm not surprised at this. The incentive was way too good not to get this

ConnurPosted:

SanicFX Sales are 50% down but it still outsold BF1. Great banter that.


In my eyes this is due to the included disc of MW remaster when buying the deluxe edition or whatever they're calling it.
