Will Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Be Release On PlayStation?
This major announcement by Activision comes right in the middle of the Microsoft purchase of Activision Blizzard, a major takeover by Microsoft after also acquiring Bethesda. While the acquisition is still ongoing and the authorities are putting the stamps on, we know for a fact that Microsoft —so far— doesn’t plan on making Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 an Xbox exclusive title.
