Like other game companies, employees at Activision's various studios have been forced to work remotely over the past several weeks by the COVID-19 outbreak. During a post-earnings financial call today, company executives said that the transition has been challenging, but major releases including the next Call of Duty game and World of Warcraft: Shadowlands remain on track to come out this year.
Blizzard president J. Allen Brack got slightly more specific about the Shadowlands release target, which is coming a little bit later than we thought. Since most previous WoW expansions have arrived in July or August, we expected it to show up in the summer as well, but Brack said in the call that it will be out closer to the end of the year.
