I think Overwatch is the only place someone can call you a broken character and it's a compliment.

@BlueGlare8 @IGN Maybe the games as a service like warzone and overwatch but I suspect most COD games will be exclusive to Xbox and PC except for the battle royal

@DanVMaul @JezCorden I agree The purchase is not bad, in the sense that COD, Overwatch (I'm a fan of shooters in general), crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Tony Hawk day one on GamePass is really cool But all those games from Ubisoft I listed being exclusive and GP is on another level. ANOTHER LEVEL

@EscoAlmighty @Just_Gaming4Fun Diablo declined? There hasn't been a new entry since 3, and that's still played to this day. There's alot of Hype for Diablo 4. Honestly, cod being exclusive would be the last thing I care about personally. Diablo, Overwatch, Spyro, Crash, etc are the real losses for ps

@SolidMali @JanDavidHassel @BenjiSales i guess 1. it depends on when the sony/cod marketing deal expires. and 2. how integrated overwatch and overwatch 2 are between platforms. might run into some issues there. but how long the xbox/activsion deal takes will be the bigger factor. if it takes a year to close..
-
Gage J. Tolin (@GageWrites) reported
@SjwSpiderman They said that COD is the only big franchise that Activision Blizzard owns, as if WOW, Diablo, and Overwatch don't exist. Yeah, like you said, if the exclusivity were an issue then Nintendo would be in trouble; heck, maybe even Sony would.

Rilla, Thorn Of The Dusk Rose (@RillaKurai) reported
@GFuelEnergy Overwatch is dead lmao, Call of duty has become dogshit, Spyro and crash haven't come out with a game in like 2 years that weren't remakes. Damn, they definitely won lmao anyways just get a PC to play all of those games.

@darlingmydearly I think Overwatch has potential to make a comeback now with better management tbh. Once they get rid of Kotick and the other problems from blizzard. Microsoft will likely put more into OW2 to try and win the hearts of the players and have everyone be happy about the acquisition.

Under BE (@xUnder_) reported
Microsoft owns Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, CoD, Elder Scrolls, Dishonored, Fallout, Doom, Minecraft, World of Warcraft, Overwatch, Starfield, Death Loop, Tony Hawk, Prototype and more from 3 acquisitions in 2014, 2020, and 2022.

NJ Clay (@njclaaaaaaaaaaa) reported
@XboxP3 @Wario64 Hope other titles like Overwatch, Crash Bandicoot, etc are also non exclusive

@JMaine518 its the only part of the deal they care about, they don't even know what a Warcraft or StarCraft is lol Maybe Overwatch a little but not even sure about that I would love to see a pie chart of COD overall revenue include MTX broken down by platform

KatzetheDragonGod (@KatzetheGod) reported
@jordanwilgroove @IGN Honestly, I'm not to worried about Crash and Spyro. I don't see them being exclusive cause they don't constantly haul big bucks. Will they make cod exclusive, maybe some, not all. That's a huge playerbase to be cut off. Overwatch probably will become exclusive. It just depends.
-
Sach (@JustMeSach) reported
Xbox’s acquisition of ABK predictions: Live service games like Warzone and Overwatch stay multiplat. CoD multiplayer and zombies stays multiplat with exclusive (timed or otherwise) content for Xbox. Hell, maybe they even make the campaign exclusive. Everything else is exclusive.

DJK1NG_Gaming - Ayakashi Triangle 🔥! 🇭🇹 (@DJK1NG_Gaming) reported
@CrispsCold @shinobi602 Taking Activision and Blizzard away means nothing to Nintendo. They barely got the Crash and Spyro remakes. And Overwatch 1 and 2 are the other two. Barely anything worth it.

rando (@rando9292) reported
@thejrbc "They don't offer a lot of big titles" CoD casually being the best selling game almost every year Crash and Spyro casually being the old Sony mascots Overwatch casually being one of the biggest multi player shooter series Blizzard casually owning some of the most iconic PC games
-
Josh Carter (@JoshingCarter) reported
With the IP's Microsoft is about to own they should commission Rare (the developers of Diddy Kong Racing) to make an Xbox/PC arcadey kart racer... They could use Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Diablo, Overwatch characters + Banjo-Kazooie, Conker, Minecraft's Steve, etc. Could be sweet

@Roseliazaa @XboxGamePassUK im waiting for overwatch or crash bandicoot
-
Chris Bottger (@ChrisBottger) reported
It occurs to me that Microsoft now owns Halo, Call of Duty, Overwatch, and Doom. All the big FPS under one roof. (Also I imagine that the Crash Bandicoot probably won't be on PlayStation again for a while.)

@Octotroph No one who gets overwatch through gamepass... will be smurfing in the next 2-3 years, because they would have just started and would still be bums. Smurfing on console is a whole other issue because you don't have to buy the game across all accounts. Gamepass dont change that.

@BlizzardCSEU_EN Please sort out the issues with CTF Blitz on Overwatch. There needs to be tougher penalties to players who leave games early. It is ruining the fun of the game.
-
Bullet (@Bullet19_) reported
@XboxP3 I’m guessing games like overwatch and cod won’t be exclusive since they have big multiplayer fan bases, but games like crash bandicoot will be exclusive.
-
Chris (@sociallynomadic) reported
@Colteastwood I think COD, Spyro and Crash (less so Spyro) will be multi platform. Overwatch and the other franchises no. Maybe THPS as well…
-
ChiliBuX Gaming (@ChilibuxG) reported
@IGN Who care about Xbox? And who really care about Activision? Their portfolio is ****. Wow is done. StarCraft done. Diablo done. Overwatch done. CoD used to be good before they got so greedy they releas 3 games a year. Bethesda makes broken games. Xbox has not won anything.
-
🧇Waffle🧇 (@Waffle_64) reported
Last year, @niandra_ let everybody know that Pride content was slated to come to Overwatch. In the end we got a player icon. ...Did Bobby Kotick have anything to do with that, or is that one on the dev team? Would be a lot less frustrating if it turned out he was the problem.
-
Fizz-sama™ - Divide My Heart (@StillFizz) reported
@TheDreadfulLord @JayRembert2 @DestinLegarie Make crash and spyro and whatever else exclusive. But Overwatch and COD should stay multiplat. That's my stance.
-
Esteban (@justshadow28) reported
@xgreen360 @CarterVettel @IGN This is the dumbest deal they can do, what are you on about. Cod, overwatch and Diablo ain’t nowhere near worth the trouble to make this deal. Be real now.
-
Xbox Indie Gamer (@indie_xbox) reported
@Romudeth Maybe, we can’t say for certain until Microsoft makes a statement. I’d like to see some Activision games be exclusive like Overwatch, Prototype, Spyro and more but maybe Crash and COD be multi platform

Zac! @ ANE, TOOL, CHILLADELPHIAsoon (@ZacRulzOK) reported
Oh I hope Xbox buying out Activision Blizzard allows for new Tony Hawk, Spyro, and Crash content after those teams all got broken up into Call of Duty and Overwatch development
