Call of Duty at the focal point of Microsoft Activision bargain debate

Microsoft is to some degree right in saying that Activision Blizzard doesn’t make any “unique, must-have” games yet it would be stupid to deny the brand esteem that Call of Duty holds.

Microsoft is however worried as Sony seems to be with regards to this, yet for various reasons. The organization has been persuading the specialists that current Call of Duty games will stay on PlayStation and despite the fact that it’s making no commitments about the future, Microsoft has told controllers in New Zealand that there’s nothing mind blowing about any Activision Blizzard establishments, including Call of Duty.

As found by Rock Paper Shotgun, Microsoft’s reaction to the New Zealand Commerce Commission reads:

Specifically, regarding Activision Blizzard computer games, there isn’t anything exceptional about the computer games created and distributed by Activision Blizzard that is a “must have” for rival PC and control center computer game wholesalers that could lead to a dispossession concern.

That’s the Call of Duty issue arranged, then. Press the green light, guys!
