The tussle between Microsoft and Sony over Call of Duty is not going to end anytime sooner. Ever since the Xbox maker announced its ambitious deal with Activision, the PlayStation giant has stopped at nothing to prevent it from happening.
It’s because Sony has many concerns regarding Call of Duty. The company believes that once the proposed acquisition of Activision by Microsoft is finished, the latter will gain an unassailable advantage in the industry.
