ActiBlizz COO Thomas Tippl has said the firm has received over 5K applicants to the Call of Duty franchise.

The resumes sent in were from folks seeking to fill vacant positions at Infinity Ward and Sledgehammer, and so far 60 folks have been hired.

“The Call of Duty brand is our largest entertainment property and it is important to redouble investment in the brand,” said Tippl.  “We will continue to pad it with talent and resources, and double our commitment as a long term investment.”
