Activision looking to extend CoD’s recurring revenue models
“What we’re not going to do is take anything away from players that they used to get today for the price they get it for today,” Tippl assures. “I don’t think that would be a good and smart business decision.”
“But I think we have a lot in our pipeline that we believe will provide great value for our players. So I think there’s continued opportunity to expand the player base and to provide them with service offerings and products that can also enhance revenue growth.”
CEO Bobby Kotick agrees: “As long as we keep providing value – whether it’s in services, or new content or things like virtual items… There’s so much we can do to provide value to our customers.”
“They’re willing to pay us for it and I think giving multiple entry points to consumers to figure out how to exactly play the game is something that’s really important to building our audiences.”
