Published 12/07/2022, 9:33 AM EST By now, everyone must be aware of the fact that Microsoft has signed a deal with Japanese giant Nintendo.

Because the newly announced Call of Duty promise from Microsoft might be a big indication for a good news in the near future.

He wrote that after the merger with Activision Blizzard King, they will offer CoD games on the Nintendo consoles for a duration of an entire decade.

Simply put, Mr.

Spencer is actually trying to make games like Call of Duty reachable to more players no matter what platforms they are on.

Now, considering the part of offering the blockbuster Activision franchise on Nintendo’s consoles, it may imply that fans of the handheld devices from the Japanese company won’t have to wait longer to get their hands on the successor to the current Switch.

Why? DIVE DEEPER “Any Day Sony Wants To Sit Down And Talk…”- Microsoft Calls Out Sony After Making A Commitment With Nintendo Over Call Of Duty ADVERTISEMENT Article continues below this ad It’s because the recently announced deal between Microsoft and Nintendo won’t close until 2023.

Which means that the Switch 2 or the new Nintendo hardware might be revealed under the duration of next three years only.

Because making a fresh device available after that won’t make sense for the 10-year Call of Duty promise.

Hence, the Mario maker may come up with a massive update either by the end of next year or in 2024 in order to launch a Switch 2.

That’s the possibility as of now, provided there’s no uncertain situation happening in the coming months.

What are your thoughts on this entire scenario so far based on Call of Duty and its multi-platform availability?
