<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9">Call of Duty 2022: <i><b>Modern Warfare II</b></i></h2>
<h3 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9">Call of Duty: History and Sale in 2022</h3>
Over the span of two decades, the phrase 'Call of Duty' has become a household name. Starting in 2003, Call of Duty is a first-person shooter video game franchise published by Activision.

The franchise has given rise to some of the most popular FPS titles, with Infinity Ward and Treyarch developing most of them. Sledgehammer Games and other studios have also contributed to developing some titles. Fans are greeted with a new Call of Duty game every year, with the above-mentioned studios rotating their role as the primary developer.

First-person shooter video game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II was created by Infinity Ward and released by Activision in 2022. It serves as the nineteenth entry in the overall Call of Duty franchise and is a follow-up to the 2019 reboot. For the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S, it was published on October 28, 2022.

The game takes place in a realistic, contemporary environment, just like its predecessor. The campaign centers on the pursuit of terrorist Hassan Zyani, who is in possession of American-made ballistic missiles, by multinational special operations unit Task Force 141 and Mexican Special Forces unit Los Vaqueros. Modern Warfare II continues to offer cross-platform multiplayer thanks to a new iteration of the IW engine.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II became the fastest-selling Call of Duty game of all time. The game grossed $800 million in its first three days and $1 billion in 10 days, surpassing the series' previous record holders, 2011's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and 2012's Black Ops II. It is the best-selling game of 2022 in the United States.
In the UK, Modern Warfare II became the best-selling game in its first week of release. In Japan, the PlayStation 4 version of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II sold 24,371 physical copies during its release week, making it the second best-selling game in the country for the week. The Sony PlayStation 5 version sold 17,710 physical copies in Japan in the same week, ranking sixth among video game sales across all formats.
In the fourth quarter of 2022, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II had the biggest opening quarter in franchise history, earning $1.85 billion. This is $694 million more than last year in the last quarter of 2021.

The 2019 title is a reboot of the Modern Warfare series and also the sixteenth main entry into the overall Call of Duty series. Developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision, Modern Warfare was released globally on October 25, 2019, for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

The gameplay takes place in a modern-day and realistic setting. Although set in a distinct timeline from the other Modern Warfare games, several popular characters from the Modern Warfare subseries including Capt. John Price made their return.
<h3><strong>Call of Duty: Warzone</strong></h3>
On March 10, 2020, Infinity Ward, Raven Software, and Activision released a free-to-play battle royale extension of 2019's Modern Warfare known as Warzone. Since its release, Call of Duty: Warzone has established itself as one of the most prominent battle royale titles.

Despite being a part of Modern Warfare, the battle royale extension does not require the purchase of the campaign and multiplayer. Warzone is the second battle royale in the franchise's history, following the Blackout mode from 2018's Black Ops 4.

This battle royale features 150 players in a lobby, (200 in some limited-time modes) which is much more compared to the 100 players supported by other battle royale titles. Within the first month of its release, Warzone exceeded 50 million players and has kept gaining immense popularity ever since.
<h3><strong>Warzone 2.0</strong></h3>
Infinity Ward and Raven Software created the free-to-play battle royale video game Warzone 2.0. It is a follow-up to Call of Duty: Warzone from 2020. Despite being a component of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II in 2022, the game may be purchased independently. Modern Warfare II Season 1 material included its debut. The game supports cross-platform play and adds the DMZ extraction mode.
<h3><strong>Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War</strong></h3>
Black Ops Cold War is the newest iteration in the Call of Duty franchise. The game, jointly developed by Treyarch Studios and Raven Software, launched worldwide on November 13, 2020.

The gameplay takes place during the 80s when the Cold War was at its peak. In addition to bringing back the elements of the Black Ops subseries, popular characters from the subseries also make their return. Alex Mason, Jason Hudson, and Frank Woods come together to prevent a possible global war.

Black Ops Cold War is the seventeenth installment in the overall series and the sixth in the Black Ops series. In December 2020, the developers integrated Black Ops Cold War with Call of Duty Warzone.

Since its origination as a franchise, Call of Duty has earned more than $15 billion and has sold more than 300 million copies worldwide, as of May 2019. This makes it the most successful video game franchise created in the United States, and the sixth highest-grossing video game franchise of all time.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Lionel Messi: Net Worth 2024, Personal Life, Career, and Endorsements</b></h2>
Today's generation categorizes Lionel Messi in a bracket that is beyond elite. The Argentine World Cup winner just turned 36 in June. Currently, with Inter Miami, Messi is on a mission to become the new face of soccer in America similar to <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/cristiano-ronaldo" target="_self" rel="noopener">Cristiano </a>Ronaldo's potential impact in Saudi Arabia. It's reported that he preferred to join Inter Miami over the likes of moving to Saudi.

Last December, he finally managed to win the FIFA World Cup with Argentina. In the famous words of Peter Drury, "<em>Scaloni will be fated, Messi will be sainted." </em>While everybody thought it was his last, it might just not be the case. With the USA as one of the host nations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the soccer veteran might surely hang around in the game for a bit longer.

[caption id="attachment_1400813" align="aligncenter" width="1696"]<img class="wp-image-1400813 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2022-12-18T205509Z_942384203_UP1EICI1I88MZ_RTRMADP_3_SOCCER-WORLDCUP-ARG-FRA-REPORT.jpg" alt="Lionel Messi" width="1696" height="1200" /> Soccer Football - FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 - Final - Argentina v France - Lusail Stadium, Lusail, Qatar - December 18, 2022 Argentina's Lionel Messi celebrates during the trophy presentation after winning the World Cup REUTERS/Kai Pfaffenbach TPX IMAGES OF THE DAY[/caption]
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Lionel Messi's net worth in 2024</h2>
Lionel Messi's current net worth in 2024 is $650 million. At Inter Miami, the Argentine soccer legend has signed a four-year contract worth $55 million. This contract had made him the highest-earning player in the MLS by far. It is also important to note that he rejected a $400 million+ Saudi Pro League offer compared to the Inter Miami one. Surprisingly, he still has a connection to Saudi.

In early 2021, he inked a $25 million deal and became the ambassador of the country. Apart from that, the Argentine also cashes out a huge pay cheque every year through his endorsements. In the past, he has endorsed several renowned brands like Jacob and Co., OrCam, Pepsi, Budweiser, Air Europa, Mastercard, Byjus, and many more.

He had originally signed with NIKE when he was 14 but later switched to Adidas. Currently, he is on a lifetime deal with the brand with his own sub-brand Adidas Messi. In recent times, he's been promoting his own store namely 'The Messi Store' a lot on social media.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Lionel Messi's early life and his family</h2>
On June 24, 1987, Jorge Messi and Celia Cuccittini gave birth to Lionel Messi. Out of four children, the soccer legend was third. He reportedly developed an interest in the game at a very young age. At the age of 4, his father started coaching him at a local club namely Grandoli. But his earliest influence was his maternal grandmother, who accompanied him for training at matches.

[caption id="attachment_842101" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-842101 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2021-11-29T192614Z_745585461_UP1EHBT1HZO4G_RTRMADP_3_SOCCER-BALLON.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1534" /> Soccer Football - The Ballon d'Or Awards - Theatre du Chatelet, Paris, France - November 29, 2021 Paris St Germain's Lionel Messi with his wife Antonella Roccuzzo and their sons before the awards REUTERS/Benoit Tessier[/caption]

That is why he celebrates many of his goals by pointing towards the sky to date, in tribute to his grandmother. At the age of six, he joined Newell's Old Boys. During his six-year tenure at the club, he scored almost 500 goals. At such a young age, he had become a fan favorite and also untouchable. But his soccer career was seemingly in jeopardy after he was diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency.

He then started receiving growth hormone treatment, but the medical bills were rapidly piling up. His father had to reportedly shell out at least $1000 per month. In an attempt to look for a medical sponsor and a new soccer club, Messi's family relied on some of their relatives who lived in Catalonia. And the rest is history.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Lionel Messi and his feat at FC Barcelona</h2>
Initially, FC Barcelona refused to sign him because of his age and also because he was foreign. But in December 2000, the club showed their commitment toward the player with the famous paper napkin. His family relocated to Barcelona and Messi joined the U14 team. Unsurprisingly, he excelled quickly. He scored 21 goals in just 14 games with the U14s and climbed up the ladder in his club career.

At the age of 17, he officially made his debut for the club's senior team. It was during the 2004-05 season. He became the youngest-ever official player and goal scorer in La Liga. In the next year, he won the UEFA Champions League with Barcelona. In 2008, he finished second behind Cristiano Ronaldo in the Ballon d'Or voting list. The following season saw him and his club win their first treble.

UnderÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/pep-guardiola/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Pep Guardiola</a>, he scored 38 goals throughout the iconic 2008-09 season. After that, he simply repeated those audacious numbers every season. In the 2011-12 season, he was banging in goals for fun after he shockingly broke Gerd Muller's 39-year-old record. He scored 73 goals in all competitions. Here are some of Messi's noteworthy achievements during his long tenure at FC Barcelona.

More than appreciation, he ended up leaving the club on not-so-good terms. But he did have a few good moments in France. In August 2022, he provided a long-range assist for Mbappe in the starting eight seconds of the game. That became Ligue 1's second-fastest second goal ever. He ended his PSG career with 32 goals and 35 assists in 75 games initially under Pochettino and then Galtier. Here are his achievements with the club.

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Lionel Messi's national team career and journey to the 2022 World Cup</h2>
Despite his success in Spain, Lionel Messi decided to represent Argentina. Spanish soccer officials reportedly tried to convince him as he had dual nationality but he refused. He represented his country's senior national team in the 2006 FIFA World Cup. Further, he won a gold medal at the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. Meanwhile, Germany ended Messi's dream of winning the World Cup in 2010 and 2014.

Nonetheless, he still managed to win the Golden Ball at the 2014 World Cup. But the thirst and the desire remained. In 2016, he scored his 55 goal for the country breaking Gabriel Batistuta's record. After a third consecutive final loss in the Copa America, Messi decided to draw the curtains over his international career. But he made a comeback to the team two months later.

But his country's situation at international tournaments still didn't get better. France eliminated Argentina from the 2018 World Cup and they returned home with a third-place finish in the 2019 Copa America. But there was a sudden turn in their fate after that. It seemed like the Argentine squad had pretty much made up their mind about their short-term goals.

Messi won the Copa America in 2021 and then won the 2022 FIFA World Cup with Argentina. Despite his age, he was an ever-shinning presence on the field for his country. He scored two vital goals during the nail-biting World Cup final. Despite retirement rumors, he continues to represent his national team. Recently, he reached 100 international goals, becoming only the third player to ever do so. In total, he scored 106. After a stunning World Cup victory, Messi claimed his record-breaking 8th Ballon d'Or.

Lionel Messi and Antonela Roccuzzo have known each other since childhood. Several sources suggest that he has known her since the age of 5. He reportedly fell in love with her at the age of just 9. He knew her because she was Lucas Scaglia's cousin, who was his childhood friend. Despite knowing each other for years, they only went official with their relationship in 2009.

After dating for about nine years, Messi and Roccuzzo decided to tie the knot. The grand wedding ceremony took place on June 30, 2017, in Rosario. The power couple has three sons. <span style="font-weight: 400">They welcomed their first son, Thiago, in 2012</span>, followed by Mateo in 2015, and Ciro in 2018. Apart from that, Messi has always cherished his family roots in Rosario.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Lionel Messi's foundations and charity</h2>
Lionel Messi has been involved in charitable efforts aimed at vulnerable children. His commitment stems from the medical difficulties he faced in his childhood. Since 2004, he has contributed his time and finances to UNICEF. The organization has a strong association with FC Barcelona. He has even served as a UNICEF goodwill ambassador since his appointment in March 2010.

Further, he reportedly donated more than a million during the COVID-19 pandemic. Further, Messi donated three signed shirts to a Chinese pharmaceutical firm. That helped them secure 50,000 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Apart from that, Messi has also founded his charitable organization, the Leo Messi Foundation, which supports access to health care, education, and sports for children.

Lionel Messi

Lionel Messi: Net Worth 2024, Personal Life, Career, and Endorsements Today&#8217;s generation categorizes Lionel Messi in a bracket that is beyond elite. The Argentine World Cup winner just turned 36 in June. Currently, with Inter Miami, Messi is on a mission to become the new face of soccer in America similar to Cristiano Ronaldo&#8217;s potential impact in Saudi Arabia. It&#8217;s reported that he preferred to join Inter Miami over the likes of moving to Saudi. Last December, he finally managed to win the FIFA World Cup with Argentina. In the famous words of Peter Drury, &#8220;Scaloni will be fated, Messi will be sainted.&#8221; While everybody thought it was his last, it might just not be the case. With the USA as one of the host nations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the soccer veteran might surely hang around in the game for a bit longer.

At Inter Miami, the Argentine soccer legend has signed a four-year contract worth $55 million. This contract had made him the highest-earning player in the MLS by far. It is also important to note that he rejected a $400 million+ Saudi Pro League offer compared to the Inter Miami one. Surprisingly, he still has a connection to Saudi. In early 2021, he inked a $25 million deal and became the ambassador of the country. Apart from that, the Argentine also cashes out a huge pay cheque every year through his endorsements. In the past, he has endorsed several renowned brands like Jacob and Co., OrCam, Pepsi, Budweiser, Air Europa, Mastercard, Byjus, and many more. He had originally signed with NIKE when he was 14 but later switched to Adidas. Currently, he is on a lifetime deal with the brand with his own sub-brand Adidas Messi. In recent times, he&#8217;s been promoting his own store namely &#8216;The Messi Store&#8217; a lot on social media. Lionel Messi&#8217;s early life and his family On June 24, 1987, Jorge Messi and Celia Cuccittini gave birth to Lionel Messi. Out of four children, the soccer legend was third. He reportedly developed an interest in the game at a very young age. At the age of 4, his father started coaching him at a local club namely Grandoli. But his earliest influence was his maternal grandmother, who accompanied him for training at matches. Soccer Football &#8211; The Ballon d&#8217;Or Awards &#8211; Theatre du Chatelet, Paris, France &#8211; November 29, 2021 Paris St Germain&#8217;s Lionel Messi with his wife Antonella Roccuzzo and their sons before the awards REUTERS/Benoit Tessier That is why he celebrates many of his goals by pointing towards the sky to date, in tribute to his grandmother. At the age of six, he joined Newell&#8217;s Old Boys. During his six-year tenure at the club, he scored almost 500 goals. At such a young age, he had become a fan favorite and also untouchable. But his soccer career was seemingly in jeopardy after he was diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency. He then started receiving growth hormone treatment, but the medical bills were rapidly piling up. His father had to reportedly shell out at least $1000 per month. In an attempt to look for a medical sponsor and a new soccer club, Messi&#8217;s family relied on some of their relatives who lived in Catalonia. And the rest is history. Lionel Messi and his feat at FC Barcelona Initially, FC Barcelona refused to sign him because of his age and also because he was foreign. But in December 2000, the club showed their commitment toward the player with the famous paper napkin. His family relocated to Barcelona and Messi joined the U14 team. Unsurprisingly, he excelled quickly. He scored 21 goals in just 14 games with the U14s and climbed up the ladder in his club career. At the age of 17, he officially made his debut for the club&#8217;s senior team. It was during the 2004-05 season. He became the youngest-ever official player and goal scorer in La Liga. In the next year, he won the UEFA Champions League with Barcelona. In 2008, he finished second behind Cristiano Ronaldo in the Ballon d&#8217;Or voting list. The following season saw him and his club win their first treble.

After that, he simply repeated those audacious numbers every season. In the 2011-12 season, he was banging in goals for fun after he shockingly broke Gerd Muller&#8217;s 39-year-old record. He scored 73 goals in all competitions. Here are some of Messi&#8217;s noteworthy achievements during his long tenure at FC Barcelona.
