Microsoft elaborates on plans for Call of Duty on Nintendo platforms
Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Switch | 0 comments
Microsoft dropped some surprising news this week, revealing that it had reached a 10-year commitment to bring Call of Duty to Nintendo platforms. Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer has now followed up with some additional information. This comes as part of an interview with The Washington Post.
One of the main takeaways is that the goal would be for a new Call of Duty game to end up on a Nintendo system at the same time as other platforms. However, it’s unlikely for anything to materialize next year. If it’s not blocked by regulators, Microsoft’s acquisition deal of Activision Blizzard – including the Call of Duty franchise – wouldn’t happen until June 2023.

Composer chuck e. myers “sea” talks about his experience working on Hogwarts Legacy over the last four years as a project while audio Producer Nathan Ayoubi delves into how the music enhances the overall experience for the player, being simultaneously new and fresh while also nostalgic.
