They say that even if Kolda stays, people will move to Xbox for the exclusive perks. That’s why Sony’s terms:
– No Explosive content on Xbox.
– The game must run equally on both consoles
– The game must have no gamepass bonuses
At the same time, Sony has something exclusive in absolutely every Call of Duty. MW19 and CW had exclusive modes for a year, then there was extra double experience, more kit slots, more BP stage passes.
MWII will have an exclusive operator.
