above and beyond the call of duty


 Activision Brings 'Call of Duty' to China
Activision Blizzard is tailoring a version of "Call of Duty" for the China market. The game will be free online, with profits coming from the sale of virtual goods.




above and beyond( the call of duty)

More than is required. This somewhat redundant expression--above and beyond here both denote excess--often precedes the call of duty, which means exceeding what a particular job requires. Thus Putting in overtime without pay is above and beyond the call of duty. Also see over and above.
