Activision is a video game developer that has almost completely dominated the industry. Its success can be attributed to a lot of games and franchises such as the Call of Duty franchise. The franchise is a juggernaut in the industry and with each iteration of the series, Activision breaks records. In fact, it seems like Activision is doing so well that Bobby Kotick, Activision’s CEO, is the second-highest-paid CEO in the video game industry.

Occupying the second spot on the list of the highest-paid CEOs, Bobby Kotick had to defeat a lot of other CEOs from other companies. Among the CEOs he beat is Andrew Wilson, the CEO of EA.

The board is responsible for compensation, and their decisions are ratified by shareholder vote. The list is democracy in action.”

The list features the salaries, bonuses, benefits, and stocks each CEO receives.
