After King deal, Activision now makes more revenue from games than Microsoft, Sony, or EA

The numbers now say that Activision Blizzard is bigger than Microsoft and Sony.

The gaming giant bought mobile developer King yesterday for $5.9 billion in a deal that is sending shockwaves throughout the industry. It also makes Activision Blizzard the gaming company with the second-highest revenue.

We know this because Newzoo released a list yesterday of the top 25 game companies with the highest revenue in the first half of 2015. Yesterday, Activision Blizzard was No. 5 with $2.322 billion, and King was No. 10 with $1.060 billion. When we combine those numbers, Activision Blizzard jumps up to the No. 2 spot with $3.382 billion in revenue.

Activision Blizzard is now only behind Tencent, the Chinese investment company with a majority equity interest in Riot Games, the developer of League of Legends, the insanely popular MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena) that earns over $100 million a month. Activision Blizzard is also now ahead of Microsoft and Sony, which were No. 2 and No. 3 on Newzoo’s list yesterday, respectively.
