Answering the Call of Duty

by

TechCrunch published this video item, entitled “Answering the Call of Duty” – below is their description.

Johanna Faries is no stranger to the world of games. After a stint at the NFL, she led Activision’s esports leagues (the CDL and the OWL) before taking over as General Manager of Call of Duty. It’s one of the biggest video game franchises to ever exist, and she’ll sit down with us at Disrupt just ahead of this year’s launch: Modern Warfare II. We’ll discuss her strategic vision for Call of Duty as a game and as a community, as well as her thoughts on the shifting landscape of gaming and esports.
