Last month, a SuperData report revealed that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare?s Q1 in-game spending and revenue surpassed the numbers generated by Black Ops 4 following the removal of the series? controversial Season Pass. In a call with investors this week, Activision Blizzard?s management officially acknowledged the positive impact of removing the Season Pass system, revealing that Modern Warfare experienced ?double-digit percentage? growth year-on-year.
?Q4 in-game net bookings grew by double-digit percentage year-over-year despite a major launch of in-game system and despite the removal of the Season Pass,? said Chief Operating Officer and President, Coddy Johnson, following which an investor specifically asked how not having the Season Pass impacted the game. Chief Executive Officer Bobby Kotick was quick to point out that Activision made a number of changes alongside removing the Season Pass (cross-play being one of them), all of which contributed to a better player experience. However, he acknowledged that replacing the old system resulted in a ?significant? increase in player engagement.
