The soap opera between Microsoft<\/a> and Sony<\/a> in their video game division is already known to be going on for a long time<\/a>. In fact, the “funniest” thing -and we are putting it in quotation marks- is that every week we receive new information<\/strong> about Xbox and PlayStation<\/strong>, as the different regulatory bodies are still mediating the purchase of Activision Blizzard for almost 70 billion dollars<\/a><\/strong>. And yes, the centerpiece of all this is Call of Duty<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During last December we learned that Microsoft had offered Sony that Call of Duty would be in the PlayStation Plus service from day 1<\/strong>. In this way, the game would be from the beginning in the subscription system, something similar to what it will do in Xbox Game Pass when the occasion arises<\/a> (everything points to be from the beginning; otherwise it would be a surprise).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This information in the previous paragraph was a leak, but now we know that it is for real. Thanks to documents submitted by Sony to the CMA<\/strong> (Competition and Markets Authority) we have learned that the problem lies in the cost of the license<\/strong>. According to the Japanese, the fact is not that it appears in PlayStation Plus, but that in case of doing so would have to pay a high price for the license of Call of Duty, which would force to raise the price of the PlayStation Plus subscription<\/a><\/strong>. For this reason, Sony has not signed such a deal, nor has it signed a 10-year PlayStation Plus deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And on the other hand, Sony also indicates<\/a> that Microsoft could release defective Call of Duty games to harm them: “Quickly detecting any anomaly in terms of technical or graphic quality compromise and ensuring that it complies would be quite a challenge. For example, Microsoft could release a PlayStation version of Call of Duty where crashes and bugs<\/strong> appear only in the late game or after subsequent updates. Even if these detriments could be detected quickly, any fix would likely come too late<\/strong>, and by then the gaming community would have lost confidence in PlayStation as the place to play Call of Duty”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The case of Nintendo<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is curious that this agreement to bring Call of Duty to other platforms has been signed by Nintendo<\/strong>. The Japanese have reached a decade of agreement, as is well known, and from Microsoft point out that even the current games could come to Nintendo Switch if they were to propose it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although everything points to Call of Duty coming out on future Nintendo consoles, from Xbox they highlight that deliveries such as Call of Duty: Warzone<\/a><\/strong> or Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2<\/a><\/strong> could appear on Nintendo Switch. They consider that if both titles are capable of running on a 2015 graphics card, Nintendo’s console could also. This all refers to being played natively<\/strong>, i.e. without the cloud or similar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The information has become known thanks to a document provided to the regular agencies<\/a>. In this, in addition to the above, it is also stressed that Activision has a “long history of optimization” in their video games, so it would be trusted in that team.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
