❘ Updated: 2020-12-09T17:26:21

Joysitq is reporting that Activision has bought many domain names in relation to their reach in getting Call of Duty to China. On June 25, 2012, Activision added more than a dozen names to its portfolio. Here are a couple of domains that were registered by Activision through the internet brand protection company MarkMonitor:

-blackopschina.com
-bochina.com
-callofdutychina.com,
-modernwarfarechina.com
-and several others that are Chinese phrases.

We don’t know if Activision is doing this to protect their brand name, or if this is hinting at the name for a Call of Duty China online free-to-play game. It’s already been confirmed that a Call of Duty game for China is the works.
