Summary
Alinea Analytics estimates the PS4 and PS5 port of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 sold 8.2 million copies in July, putting the 2012 game among 2026's five best-selling titles.
Black Ops 1 added 3 million sales, lifting the two PlayStation ports to 11.2 million units and about $435 million in revenue after Activision released them last month.
The surge came despite minimal changes from the original games, with no major new content or technical overhaul, suggesting a low-cost rerelease strategy paid off.
Activision appears to have turned to the ports after Black Ops 7 underperformed last year, using older titles to rebuild goodwill ahead of Modern Warfare 4's October launch.
