Industry reports and insider information have been swirling around the upcoming Call of Duty installment, and with Microsoft’s recent acquisition of Activision-Blizzard, this showcase marks the first time the franchise will be directly under the Xbox umbrella.
This strategic timing positions the Xbox Games Showcase as a launchpad for Microsoft to showcase its powerhouse portfolio bolstered by the Activision-Blizzard acquisition. Throughout the week of the showcase, which conveniently coincides with Summer Game Fest, Xbox promises a steady stream of news and deep dives into a plethora of upcoming titles.
