Activision released their Q2 results today:

For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, Activision Blizzard’s GAAP net revenues were $970 million, as compared with $1.05 billion for the second quarter of 2013. On a non-GAAP basis, the company’s net revenues were $658 million, as compared with $608 million for the second quarter of 2013. For the second quarter of 2014, GAAP net revenues from digital channels represented 49% of the company’s total revenues. On a non-GAAP basis, net revenues from digital channels represented a record 73% of the company’s total revenues.

As of June 30, 2014, Blizzard Entertainment’s World of Warcraft remains the #1 subscription- based MMORPG, with approximately 6.8 million subscribers.4 There was a decline in subscribers quarter over quarter, which was disproportionately concentrated in the East and was similar to the seasonal decline experienced during the second quarter of 2012, prior to the launch of the most recent expansion later that year.

Life to date, Activision Publishing’s Call of Duty: Ghosts remained the #1 best-selling game on the next-generation consoles in North America and Europe combined.

In North America and Europe combined, for the first six months of 2014, Activision Publishing’s Skylanders SWAP ForceTM was the #2 best-selling console and handheld game overall in dollars, and in North America, Skylanders SWAP Force outsold the #1 action figure line.

As of June 30, 2014, Blizzard Entertainment’s Diablo III: Reaper of Souls remained the #1 PC game in dollars in both North America and Europe and, including its expansion and digital sales, Diablo III has sold more than 20 million copies worldwide across all platforms since its release in 2012.

It's impressive that WoW still has 6.8m subs after 9/10 years. I won't miss it once it's gone, but credit where credit's due.



I did not like WoW so I don't care if it is dropping. - actually, 4 m or so max would be perfect :P



And it will be back in the 8-9 million subscriptions when the new expansion launches.



Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M

This exactly. They always see like a 2million boost each time a new xpac launches. If they could release a xpac every year then they would sit around 9-10 million all the time.
