Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 may end Xbox exclusivity deal

4.6
Is Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 about to break the trend of Xbox priority DLC?

The Xbox brand has always been considered the home of Call of Duty. Each year’s game would get demoed on a Microsoft stage, all advertisements would carry the Xbox logo, and DLC would always come first to Xbox consoles – and enjoy a 30-day exclusivity period.

It looks like things are going to be a bit different this year. The UK Xbox One page shows a number of AAA games, some are due this year, others next year. If you look at the game covers, there’s a green box that either says “exclusive game” or “content first,” depending on the game.

The Division for instance is not an exclusive game, but will get early-access to content on Xbox.


If you look at the Black Ops 3 thumbnail however, there’s nothing there.

It’s worth noting that Rise of the Tomb Raider doesn’t carry that sticker. This could be due to the fact that the game is also coming to Xbox 360. Although, Ori and the Blind Forest carries the exclusive tag, even though it’s available on PC.

This is the CoD where I stop buying them forever. The series is ruined. The only way to enjoy these games is if you're will to drop $60 on DLC that at some point you'll need to play, and can put up with the stupid amount of immature children CoD draws in.

I think Playstation should just buy the series, I'm tired of hearing about it.

eh, you meant to say "mediocre for xbox one and ps4, BETTER for PC" LOL.

It won't be. Playstation is rumored to have the deal this year. Xbox would get it a month later.
