On January 20, Xbox’s Phil Spencer tweeted that Microsoft will continue to work with Sony to retain Call of Duty on the PlayStation platform.
“I confirmed our intention to honor all existing agreements upon acquisition of Activision Blizzard and our desire to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation.”
The specifics of how Microsoft would carry out these plans have yet to be revealed, although some have hypothesized that the “want” to retain CoD on PlayStation could be a ruse to get Game Pass onto the PS4 and PS5. However, the community expressed its gratitude with “W” comments and “things you love to see.” Fans are thrilled to see the firms collaborate to keep the FPS available on all platforms.
Just another typical @XboxP3 big W here, per the usual.
