The future world of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 Pre-Orders are 3x that of 2010’s Black Ops 1 and 30% above Modern Warfare 3! In other words, Black Ops 2 has entered the big leagues… and the game doesn’t come out for another 6 months!

The Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 release date is November 13th, 2012 for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

Black Ops 2 has, from the day of its announcement, blew up the retail space unlike anything before it, and has already outpaced its prequel (2010’s “Black Ops” 1) by 3 times! Additionally, the game has already seen a 30% Pre-Order increase over Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 from last year! That is HUGE, because Modern Warfare 3 holds the record as the most pre-ordered videogame of all time on Amazon, and is in the top 20 ALL-TIME list on Amazon.com for any product of any category, that includes movie pre-orders, book pre-orders and music pre-orders! QUITE THE FEAT!

So if Black Ops 2 can outpace Modern Warfare 3 in pre-orders, then Activision will be one HELL of a happy company, and surely swimming through vats of money like one Scrooge McDuck!

Speaking to GameSpot, a US Amazon representative stated: “Preorders from day 1 of Black Ops II were more than 10 times the amount of preorders for the first Black Ops on its first day of availability. Black Ops II even out preordered the first day of availability for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 by more than 30 percent. Modern Warfare 3 currently holds the record for the most preordered game of all time and was amongst the top 20 preorders ever on Amazon.com, including books and movies.”

Black Ops 2 is being developed by a team of over 300 people at developer Treyarch, and is the next game in the best-selling, highly anticipated Call of Duty franchise. A franchise that Activision has made into a yearly event of mammoth proportions, to huge sales, high-critical acclaim and mega-interest. With each subsequent game becoming bigger and bigger and setting new records.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, as the title suggest, picks up right where the original Black Ops from 2010, left off. However, in a first for the series, Black Ops 2 is actually set IN THE FUTURE!

Here is the Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 Debut Trailer.
