You mean the contracts were real?

 

[PlanetSmasher]

So, basically exactly what everyone thought. The second the deal closes they'll release the one that was already in development and then slam the door shut.

There's literally no change from what people were already expecting to happen.

Contracts

?

 

[Curufinwe]

As expected. Nice to get it confirmed

 

[henhowc]

What people were guessing. No good guy Phil. Just business.

 

[Plasma]

So after the existing deals are done it goes exclusive just like the Bethesda titles.

Warzone 2 being on PS is great for Sony all things considered assuming it keeps being the BR COD for the whole gen.

Yeah pretty much lol

 

[Coolluck]

Warzone 2 is weird but the timing makes more sense.

 

[jbug617]

2024 is when the questions start

 

[DixieDean82]

Wait a minute, Warzone 2?! Does he just mean a new map?

 

[Bradbatross]

I mean yea, we knew that. The deal isn't going to be done until sometime in 2023 lol.

 

[RoKKeR]

Interesting. I wonder how/if this will impact the regulatory side of things. Wish we could just skip to the finish line to see how it all plays out lol.

 

[Azerth]

Makes sense this and next year due to the deal closing and the following due to contract

 

[Xando]

So probably until Sony marketing deal runs out

 

[tapedeck]

So exactly what we thought..couple CoD's under contract then it's gonna be Warzone only.

I bet sledgehammer gets taken out of the rotation. COD takes a year break in 2024 and returns with an IW game in 2025 with the new rotation being IW and Treyarch with extended dev time.
