PlayStation 4 to be Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare lead console

4.3
Sledgehammer Games recently unveiled images and the first trailer for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare which showcased – among other things – EXO suits, futuristic weaponry, PMCs and the ever amazing Kevin Spacey. The visuals caught our attention above all as they appeared several tiers above last year’s Call of Duty: Ghosts. Best of all, the footage was all captured on the Xbox One. But is it the lead platform?

Industry insider Ahsan Rasheed, known as “thuway” on NeoGAF tweeted about the same and stated that, “Also I want to say one thing to all the Xbox One fans that keep telling me COD is X1 lead platform. It’s not. It’s a marketing deal.”
According to Rasheed, the studio that first created Call of Duty will focus on PS4. “Here’s the part you should pay attention to. Developers inside Infinity Ward prefer the PS4. Majority will use it to play at home.” Which is hard to deny – PS4 sales currently stand at 7 million units worldwide.

Rasheed continued, “Put that inside your head. The developers who made the game. Majority will play the game on PS4 at home with friends.”
When another user stated that that was for Infinity Ward and may not necessarily apply to Sledgehammer Games, Rasheed said, “So cute. If you think the PS4 version won’t be the definitive console version technically, I have some bad news.”

When developing for next gen consoles, doesn’t it make sense to focus on the most powerful one? Let us know what you think in the comments. As usual, even though Ahsan’s track record has been pretty solid till date, it’s best to take this information with massive grain of salt.
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare will be out on Xbox One, PS4 and PC on November 4th. A separate studio will be working on the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions, which release on the same day.

Its still going to be more popular on the Xbox One. I don't see COD Champs going to PS4 anytime soon.

I'm sure they're gonna make loads from both consoles no need to prioritize.

Sour_D PlayStation 4 to be Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare lead console yet xbox get DLC first lol


Don't worry, when Sledgehammer see's how many games they're selling on PS4 compared to Xbox, they'll be getting the DLC first. Why? Because what company is going to sell their product to a consumer economy with less consumers over an economy with more consumers.

U mad bro????


You do realize they get the DLC first?

Also CoDs absolute crap anyway so I doubt they mind if PS4 is CoDs lead console tbh.

Think of it like this. If a top game like cod is "superior" on ps4, that says alot. In YOUR opinion its crap, yet for the past 7 years since cod 4 it has been consistently at the top of the charts as the most popular game each year, all year


Not really my opinion though, they have to release the same game again with different maps every year to keep people playing the game it's that bad.


It's because they sell.

Look at games like Battlefield, Madden, Fifa, Assassin's Creed, Legos, Resident Evil, Elder Scrolls, Pokemon, and Mario.

From game to game they change very little features, but it doesn't matter because people will buy them. Infinity ward, Treyarch, and Sledgehammer knows how the system works.


I've seen many changes in some of those games you've stated, but I get your point. However, that doesn't change the fact that it might be better for PS4, they'll still sell either way lol. Anyways, Kingdom Hearts will decide whether I get an Xbox or PS (I'm one of those people that liked both consoles for years now).
