China's Call of Duty Online the Reality

Remember the Chinese F2P Call of Duty Online title (read this if not) well, far from being a pie-in-the-sky thing, it's now a real thing and it's got a video.

Activision/Blizzard has teamed up with Tencent in China for the Call of Duty Online outing that will probably make EA's John Riccitiello scream with envy at the number of Chinese gamers ready to pay to reload.

Bobby Kotick, CEO of Activision Blizzard is, of course, "very excited about our relationship with Tencent and the opportunities for gaming in China," said . "We think China is one of the most exciting places in the world for us to grow our business and to develop innovative new games."

Kotick continued, "Tencent is an ideal partner for Activision to bring Call of Duty Online to China. Tencent has a terrific track record of customer-focused innovation and deep market knowledge that will be invaluable to Activision as we build great games for China. We have worked closely with Tencent to create a game with broad appeal for the Chinese market. We look forward to laying the foundation for a long-standing relationship with Tencent and to launching a new and unique experience for fans."

Now the trailer... which is all MW2 and CoD4 maps. We'd also recommend you compare and contrast the official pix to the screengrab for much hilarity.
