With Microsoft buying up Activision recently, it made me wonder what the future of COD will be. I heard rumors of them taking a year off in 2023, and that could still happen. Their is still a game expected to drop this year, which I believe is a sequel to Modern Warfare, so could be good, or could be shit, we'll see.

I think people are worried that MS will keep their grubby hands on the franchise and won't allow it to drop on the PS4/PS5 for example. But I guess MS says that'd be crazy as it wouldn't be profitable to keep it exclusive, at least according to the article below:


But this is also MS we're talking about, they like to change their minds often. What do you think will happen? Will MS honor their words and release it multiplatform? Or will it be exclusive to Xbox going forward?

    Nah, they want their money. If they make this move, it will kill off 50% of their fanbase.

    What they will do it probably have exclusive DLC for xbox players only moving forward. So you can be on PS and play the game but you will be missing out on the option to buy more content or special content.

    Yup this right here. Xbox would be idiots to make COD exclusive to just their consoles. Especially when the majority of gamers play COD on PlayStation these days. That would leave a lot of the fanbase out, and I don't think those half would pick up an Xbox just to play COD.

    As well, COD makes billions per year, cutting that revenue down just screams dumb to me. I don't think they would ever make it exclusive.

    I know when it comes to Warzone, something like 70% are on Xbox consoles but I am not sure what the yearly release is. I think for that one, most players overall are on PC. It is hard to find actual stats though. I know back in the day, it was mainly split between PS and Xbox.
