The news comes a day after the announcement that Call of Duty: Warzone surpassed 100 million players. Activision also posted an infographic that showed some fun statistics about the free-to-play battle royale.

Since Warzone launched on multiple platforms last year, there have been over 26 billion parachutes deployed, almost 29 billion matches played, and over eight billion fights in the gulag.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, the latest premium installment in the FPS franchise, was released in November and has already reached the top 20 list of all-time best-selling games in U.S. history.

The third season of content in Black Ops Cold War and Warzone is set to launch tonight on all platforms.
