Xbox head Phil Spencer has actually made it generously clear that Call of Duty will certainly be continuing to be on PlayStation gaming consoles.

Appearing on The Verge’s Decoder (opens up in brand-new tab) podcast previously today, Spencer was once more inquired about taking Call of Duty off PlayStation systems, given Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard profits. “It’s not about at some point I pull the rug underneath PlayStation 7’s legs,” Spencer started by claiming. 

“This idea that we would write a contract that says the word forever in it I think is a little bit silly, but to make a longer term commitment that Sony would be comfortable with, regulators would be comfortable with, I have no issue with that at all,” the head of Xbox proceeded.

Spencer, and also Microsoft at huge, have actually been asked many times concerning Call of Duty considering that it was introduced the firm would certainly be getting Activision Blizzard previously this year. Last month in October, Spencer exposed his dream to treat Call of Duty like Minecraft, and also placed it on as numerous systems as feasible in spite of the purchase (Microsoft formerly obtained Minecraft designer Mojang). 

Despite this, PlayStation head Jim Ryan called Spencer’s deal of maintaining Call of Duty on PlayStation systems “inadequate on many levels.” Countering this, Microsoft after that insisted that also if every Call of Duty gamer changed to Xbox gaming consoles, PlayStation would supposedly still have a bigger audience

Considering Modern Warfare 2 simply had the biggest Call of Duty launch ever on a PlayStation console last month in October, possibly it’s not unusual Spencer wants to maintain the collection on Sony’s system. 

Activision Blizzard’s head of state just recently insisted he was confident the Microsoft acquisition would close by June 2023
