Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is nearing 400,000 copies sold on Steam already, and that’s well ahead of where last year’s Black Ops 7 stood at launch on Valve’s platform. This is according to Rhys Elliott of Alinea Analytics, who added that pre-sales on Steam alone work out to around $21 million in revenue.
Elliott said Black Ops 7 managed to hit around 200,000 copies pre-sold on Steam by launch. Modern Warfare 4 has doubled that, and with two months still to go before release.
Modern Warfare 4 is selling well so far on Steam, it seems.
MW4’s beta put up big numbers on Steam during its early-access period, reaching a peak of more than 115,000 concurrent users. Black Ops 7, meanwhile, peaked at about 100,000 concurrent users on Steam, even after it went live for everyone outside of a beta weekend, according to ChalieIntel.
MW4 performing better than Black Ops 7 by some metrics already is not a total surprise, as last year’s game was a commercial disappointment. In fact, its sales ranking in the US was the lowest for the series since 2008.
