There new Xbox will arrive towards the end of 2026 And Call of Duty will be among the launch gamesaccording to some sources: a strategy that appears decidedly plausible, where Microsoft intends to focus heavily on the popularity of the Activision shooter.
The rumor stands as a confirmation of rumors that have been circulating for some time now, and which see the debut of the next Xbox a year ahead of PS6 in an attempt to replicate what happened in the days of Xbox 360.
The unforgettable Microsoft console, which arrived in stores in November 2005, managed to gain a substantial advantage in terms of sales over the PS3 also thanks to an aggressive price and Sony’s own strategies.
The Japanese company, in fact, at the time was aiming for the integration of a Blu-Ray player that significantly increased production costsas well as proprietary technologies that proved difficult for developers to exploit.
Call of Duty as a launch game?
The use of Call of Duty as the launch game for the next Xboxin this situation, represents an almost obvious move where Microsoft seriously wants to focus on sales of its new hardware.
In fact, we would have an episode of the Activision series capable of exploiting the technologies made available by the new console exclusively compared to PlayStationwhich at that moment will only be able to count on a line-up made up of PS5 and PS5 Pro.
It would be about a very smart approach on Microsoft’s partwhich without giving up the multiplatform needs of Call of Duty would precisely create a sort of exclusive by focusing on the enthusiasm of the many fans of this franchise so that they choose Xbox as their next platform.
