A retailer is warning potential PS5 buyers that future CallofDuty games might be exclusive to Xbox!
✖ When Xbox announced its intention to purchase Activision Blizzard earlier this month, it led to a lot of speculation what it could mean for PlayStation 5 owners. While Xbox boss Phil Spencer has already confirmed the company's intention to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation, there are still lingering questions about what form that will take.
*Translation – Notice to gamers, Microsoft has bought Activision! Choose your machine carefully #XboxActivisionBlizzard pic.twitter.com/P0RPU37uWL — 🐉🎮HazzadorGamin, Dragon Of Dojima Gamin🎮🐉 January 28, 2022 It will be very interesting to see how Microsoft's purchase impacts the Call of Duty franchise! The sale isn't set to go through until 2023, which means that fans have some time before any major changes come about. Still, Microsoft has been very careful about how it discusses the series.
The PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X are still very new, and the global chip shortage has resulted in fewer gamers being able to upgrade from their current consoles. Given that, it makes a little sense that Cora would warn shoppers about Xbox's purchase of Activision Blizzard, and its potential impact. Not every gamer can afford multiple consoles, and if their favorite series does become an exclusive, it might mean that difficult decisions have to be made.
