PlayStation’s exclusive Warzone Combat Packs, previously only available to PS+ members, can now be purchased on Xbox and PC. However, players on these platforms will have to pay $20 worth of CoD points for the packs. This move comes as part of the ongoing exclusivity deal between PlayStation and Call of Duty, which is set to continue until 2024.
Many gamers have expressed their dissatisfaction with this method of selling exclusive skins on other platforms. It not only forces Xbox and PC users to pay more for the same content, but it also diminishes the exclusivity factor for PlayStation players.
Despite the criticism, these bundles are still being purchased by the modern gamer. The average person seems willing to pay $20 for content they like, regardless of the platform. However, considering that Call of Duty follows a yearly release schedule and players already pay for the game and battle passes, there isn’t a compelling reason to buy these skins unless they carry over to future releases or hold personal value.
While buying additional content can support developers and ensure the longevity of a game, the high price tag for pre-existing in-game skins seems excessive. It’s important for players to consider whether their purchase truly benefits the developers or if it’s simply a way to capitalize on popular demand.
