Microsoft Gaming CEO wants to keep Call of Duty available on PlayStation

Phil Spencer, the CEO of Microsoft’s gaming division, has publicly expressed a desire to keep Call of Duty available on PlayStation. He has also informed Sony of this aim, the CEO reports.

Tweet from Phil Spencer

Spencer reports ‘good conversations‘ with top people from Sony. “I have confirmed our intention to honor all existing agreements following the Activision Blizzard acquisition and have expressed a desire to keep Call of Duty available on PlayStation.” With this he wants to reassure Sony and PlayStation owners. With the acquisition of Activision Blizzard by Microsoft, the question is which games from the game company will continue to appear for Sony’s console.

The CEO’s ruling is nevertheless not a firm commitment and leaves room for exclusivity on Xbox and PC for the game, whether or not in the long term. Starfield, an upcoming RPG from Bethesda, will only be released for PC and Xbox. Microsoft acquired Bethesda last year for $8.1 billion. Bethesda’s Ghostwire: Tokyo is temporarily exclusive to PlayStation consoles and PC, but Microsoft is still sticking to previous agreements. On Thursday, Sony expressed the expectation that Microsoft will continue to fulfill its contractual obligations and will continue to ensure that Activision games remain available multiplatform.
