Microsoft and Sony Has Agreed to a 10-Year Deal To Keep Call of Duty on PlayStation
/
With Microsoft close to cementing its acquisition of Activision Blizzard, It looks like the dust has cleared as Microsoft and Sony Interactive Entertainment have finally made a binding agreement to keep the Call of Duty franchise on PlayStation for 10 years.
This agreement secures future titles coming from Activision’s popular Call of Duty franchise to be available on PlayStation systems. Microsoft’s vice chair Brad Smith further reiterated their stance that ever since they made the acquisition, they will “remain focused on ensuring that Call of Duty remains available on more platforms and for more consumers than ever before.”
Ever since the acquisition was made public, Sony was greatly opposed to the deal, mainly because they might take away Call of Duty from their systems and make future titles exclusive to Xbox platforms.
Hopefully, this eases PlayStation Call of Duty players as the franchise has had a big player base on PlayStation for years.
This isn’t the first time Microsoft made sure a franchise was still available on rival platforms. Back in 2014, Microsoft purchased Mojang, the company responsible for the hit game Minecraft. Ever since the purchase, the series has been available on PlayStation and Nintendo to this day.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has the potential to be a favorite for fans of the franchise, delivering an authentic Indiana Jones experience with its story and cinematic presentation. While the game shines in its exploration and puzzle elements, the combat and stealth mechanics’ lack of gameplay variety holds it back.
