While PlayStation fans continue to enjoy the exclusive content, other players have criticized the Sony-Activision partnership forunfairly favoring PlayStation players and devaluing PC and Xbox gamers. Most fans seemed to not take too much issue with the deal before the release ofBlack Ops Cold War, as the prior PlayStation exclusives forModern WarfareandWarzonewere limited to cosmetic rewards. But fans began to voice concern when it was revealed that PlayStation players would receive an additional game mode and gameplay-impacting bonuses such as tier skips and extra XP.

Some fans have asserted that the bonuses are game-breaking because they give PlayStation players an advantage over other players, especially considering thatBlack Ops Cold Waris cross-platform. They argue that itturnsBlack Ops Cold Warinto a pay-to-win title, as the Battle Pass Bundles that are only available to PlayStation players cost $20 a pop. Fans also take issue with the Zombie Outbreak game mode, as the feature received numerous changes and upgrades in Season Two, and only PlayStation players are able to enjoy it.

Despite the complaints, Activision and Sony are showing no signs and slowing down on theCall of Dutyexclusives, and today’s Combat Pack is proof of that.
