hours.
• King Digital, which was acquired last year, obtained a
revenue of over $2 billion in 2015, or about $500
million per quarter.

second-quarter(April) revenue when it came out May

• The creation of Activision Studios which
recently released Warcraft: the movie and will
create more game based TV shows/films in
2018/2019 starting with Call of Duty. I believe

soon because of the upcoming November
2016 release of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare

production by Activison Blizzard.
