Rumor: Call of Duty exclusivity deal moving over to PlayStation?

4.3
We can’t imagine a world where Call of Duty and Microsoft part ways, but just because we can’t imagine it doesn’t mean it could never happen. There’s a lot of rumors circulating that Microsoft may have lost the exclusivity and/or marketing deal for Call of Duty this year to PlayStation. Rumors started with industry insiders and quickly began to look like a possibility once the Black Ops 3 teasers hit.

DLC is just the first half of the equation. What would this mean for future Black Ops 3 events? or Call of Duty Championship 2016?

Exhibit A) Official Sony Twitter account tweeted both teasers and uploaded to their YouTube channels at the exact time they went live. Microsoft waited at least an hour in both cases.

Exhibit B) Sony hasnt uploaded a Call of Duty video since Call of Duty Ghosts.

Exhibit C) No Xbox One branding at begining of teasers.

Exhibit D) Neogaf “Industry Insider” Kyoufu is indcating that the Call of Duty exclusivity deal has moved over to Sony.

At the very least, it looks like Sony is showing more CoD love this year. We should know for sure this Sunday when the first full trailer for Call of Duty Black Ops 3 releases. Every reveal trailer has been attached with a press release that announces its renewed partnership with Microsoft so time will tell soon….

I don't think it is right just making a game for one console plus wouldn't they make more money if they sold them on both Xbox and playstation ?!

I think Microsoft should give it up with the way it's going.

element-flip-z i couldn't see this happening the CoD developers would lose money to go to one console but that's just my opinion i could still see the possibility though.


I don't understand how they would lose money? Maybe you don't understand it either? As of now Microsoft has an exclusivity deal but the developers still make a lot of money. If it were to switch to playstation I don't see them losing money, I see them making more or less the same :p The game would still launch on both consoles if thats what you are thinking lol.

I wouldn't be surprised if Sony were trying to snatch up the COD franchise, but I think Microsoft know better than to give it up.
