Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 may end Xbox exclusivity deal

4.6
Is Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 about to break the trend of Xbox priority DLC?

The Xbox brand has always been considered the home of Call of Duty. Each year’s game would get demoed on a Microsoft stage, all advertisements would carry the Xbox logo, and DLC would always come first to Xbox consoles – and enjoy a 30-day exclusivity period.

It looks like things are going to be a bit different this year. The UK Xbox One page shows a number of AAA games, some are due this year, others next year. If you look at the game covers, there’s a green box that either says “exclusive game” or “content first,” depending on the game.

The Division for instance is not an exclusive game, but will get early-access to content on Xbox.


If you look at the Black Ops 3 thumbnail however, there’s nothing there.

It’s worth noting that Rise of the Tomb Raider doesn’t carry that sticker. This could be due to the fact that the game is also coming to Xbox 360. Although, Ori and the Blind Forest carries the exclusive tag, even though it’s available on PC.

I'm sorry but this looks worse than Ghosts and AW put together. But I'll probably still end up buying it

You-Tube Black ops has always been my favorite since bo1, mainly since start of zombies actually where i played waw I loved cod, but now since bo2 they are going down hill, im not getting my hopes up but if they **** this up then im done with cod.


Black Ops have really been your favourite? Never really been a fan of Black Ops Multiplayer, only Zombies were great to play. Modern Warfare 1 and 2 are the best COD's that you can play, and still are imo. I haven't bothered getting the last 2 COD's and apparently that was a good thing. I'll be getting this hoping Zombies will be good and multiplayer to be half decent.

Ohh, how bad will this one be. If this doesn't have a reasonable amuount of dedicated servers, then I think the console community will eventually die off.

As for the Exclusivity deal, then I think it should be severed. It just adds more bad stigma to Microsoft.
