We believe this is the right thing for the industry, for gamers and for our business.” Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 editions and pre-ordersĬall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is now available for pre-order across all platforms ahead of its October 28 release date and there are a few editions to choose from. In fact, Microsoft goes even further in the post to say: “We are also interested in taking similar steps to support Nintendo’s successful platform.
That seems like good news for the future of Call of Duty on PlayStation. The post states that, “to be clear, Microsoft will continue to make Call of Duty and other popular Activision Blizzard titles available on PlayStation through the term of any existing agreement with Activision." Further to that, Microsoft "have committed to Sony that we will also make them available on PlayStation beyond the existing agreement and into the future so that Sony fans can continue to enjoy the games they love.” That offers more clarification and addresses Call of Duty specifically, saying that it will stay on PlayStation even beyond these existing agreements. These three games are apparently the now-confirmed Modern Warfare 2 reboot (aka Call of Duty 2022), another Call of Duty game from Black Ops Cold War developer Treyarch ( potentially delayed to 2024) and Call of Duty: Warzone 2 (the next iteration of the popular battle royale spinoff).Ĭlearing things up even more, though, is a blog post published by Microsoft in February 2022. The sources told Bloomberg that Activision had already committed to these releases before the acquisition and so Microsoft intends to honor it. In a report by Bloomberg (opens in new tab), four anonymous insiders, who claim to have knowledge of the deal, told the outlet that the next three Call of Duty games are slated to release for PlayStation as well as Xbox consoles.

However, this didn't exactly instill confidence among Call of Duty PlayStation players, as many worried about what these "existing agreements" are. "Sony is an important part of our industry, and we value our relationship," Spencer wrote. Spencer then tweeted (opens in new tab) that he had "good calls" with leaders at Sony and had confirmed Microsoft's "intent to honor all existing agreements upon acquisition of Activision Blizzard" as well as the company's "desire to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation". This ambiguous statement didn't exactly confirm whether or not current Activision Blizzard franchises, like Call of Duty, will become Xbox exclusives at a later date. In a blog post (opens in new tab) announcing the deal, Xbox head Phil Spencer said: "Activision Blizzard games are enjoyed on a variety of platforms and we plan to continue to support those communities moving forward". The main question being: will future Call of Duty games come to PlayStation consoles? Good news for PlayStation players: it's looking like they will for the foreseeable future. Not only did we get a clear look at Modern Warfare 2's visuals, this also showcased a firefight and the level's moving cover.įollowing the announcement of Microsoft's planned $69 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard, there was uncertainty over what the takeover will mean for Call of Duty.
