Activision Reports $841 Million In Net Revenue This Quarter
Thanks to games like World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria, Diablo 3, and Skylanders Spyro's Adventure, Activision is still making a lot of money.
In a recent financial report, Activision announced that it currently has no debt and $3.4 billion in cash and investments. The company's profits are $100 million higher than it predicted and nearly as much higher as last year's profits. Activision pointed to Mists of Pandaria which sold 2.7 million copies in its first week and Diablo 3, which has sold 10 million copies as two of it's made revenue sources, but Skylanders has also continued to do very well for the company.
It's already been a good year for Activision and Call of Duty hasn't even released yet.
