Call Of Duty fans braved bitter temperatures to queue overnight to get their hands on the latest blockbuster game.
Hundreds of stores across the UK were open at midnight for the release of the 10th instalment, Call Of Duty: Ghosts.
Kevin Kite, 32, a funfair worker from Kilburn in London, queued from 9.30pm at a Game store in Camden to get a copy of the new title.
He said: “I have been playing Call Of Duty for the last 10 years. When I am off work, I play it all the time, about 20-30 hours a week.
“I booked the day off work tomorrow so I can go home and play the new game all night long.”
Justin Tillock, 31, a stage hand at Shaftesbury Theatre, said: “I absolutely would not waste my time queuing for any other games.
“I will go home and unashamedly play the game until sunlight.”
Activision Publishing hosted a red-carpet event on Monday night at the IndigO2 in London to mark the launch, where celebrities took part in a multiplayer tournament.
England footballer Daniel Sturridge was part of a team of six which won the tournament.
In a tense final streamed live on the Call Of Duty website, Sturridge won 13-11 against the game developers’ senior community manager Tina Palacios.
Among other celebrities taking part included rapper Wretch 32, hip-hop duo Rizzle Kicks, England footballer Andros Townsend and England rugby player Tom Croft.
