Activision Blizzard announced that they will be discontinuing the “Guitar Hero” series of video games.
The company said they will be focusing more of their attention on battle games such as “Call of Duty.”

Activision Blizzard also produces the popular massive multiplayer online role-playing game, “World of Warcraft” which has over 12 million paid subscribers.
