CoD: Ghosts next-gen upgrade options include “disc-less dual license”

4.4
Activision has detailed a couple of new options for grabbing a next-gen version of Call of Duty: Ghosts for those who purchase a PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 copy.

As detailed in a website update, Xbox fans have the option to purchase a “disc-less dual license” through the Xbox Game Ahead Program. Available through participating retailers at an RRP of $70, it offers two digital copies of Call of Duty: Ghosts – one for Xbox 360, and one for Xbox One – tied to a specific gamertag.

The same deal is available through the Xbox live Marketplace, by purchasing the Xbox 360 version for $50 and then paying out $10 for the Xbox One version.

The PS3 version is eligible for a similar deal, whether you pick it up at retail or through the PlayStation Store; for a limited time, all store-bought copies will come with a download code unlocking a $10 version for PS4.

Exact prices for these deals will vary by territory, with a €10 and £10 upgrade price suggested for Europe and the UK respectively. One definite detail is that all upgrade deals must be redeemed by the end of March 2014, though.

These new options are in addition to various retailer offers, which allow purchasers in various territories to grab a PS4 or Xbox One copy for $10, on top of the purchase price of the original. A full breakdown is available on the page linked above.

Call of Duty: Ghosts is due on PC, PS3, Wii U and Xbox 360 on November 5, with PS4 and Xbox One versions coming when the new console launches.

I like the idea of being able to purchase the disc-less dual license for Xbox as it is a pretty easy method opposed to buying one disc, and then proceeding to venture back to the store to exchange it for the next-gen version. I don't really see why there is a redemption period for the Xbox dual license.

This is a pretty good idea

Gotta_Have_It This is a pretty good idea, but I wont be getting a next gen console for a long time.


Why not man? I pre-ordered my PS4 ages ago, I can't wait for the next gens.


Some people (like me) might not have the money to dish out 500pounds


I have the cash but I am waiting for the Bundles to come out hopefully they bundle it with the PS Vita then I will buy it I am in no rush for the next gen consoles I am happy going to my friends house and watch all the features with him as that's what I am doing on the midnight release of the PS4.

Destroyed The idea is nice but won't installing a bunch of games eat up your HDD?


I hope it won't, they should at least make it big enough for tons of games.

RicardoHill-Henry Nice to see they're thinking about their customers. I think this is a great idea, and hope Rockstar does the same for GTA V.


Only problem I have is if I get reported and get banned etc. As modding is a bannable offense and you forfeit your game then I'd still rather have my disc and paly it on another PS on a different account but I am for Digital Games etc.
